    For some reason my post above blended with the quote I was highlighting so expand that post.

    Unrelated, I remember going to this furniture place on 48th Pl. Had to pull into this very tight alley across the street and back blind across the street. Once docked I had to drop the trailer and park the tractor on the side of the street otherwise I would have blocked the whole street. Traffic started backing up during each portion of the drop n hook.

    Getting out was almost worse because some cars had parked that weren't there initially. Had to pull back down the alley across the street and blind alley dock back onto the street. I asked the people at the warehouse to spot me and stop traffic as I wiggled my way out. They seemed used to it.

    It was definitely my pleasure to meet you. Buying you a coke was the least that I could do after I blocked you from getting to the fuel pumps. Lol.

    Just so you know...you didn't block me at all. I pulled behind you on purpose when you were fueling for selfish reasons. I figured that if I pulled behind a Millis driver, that driver wouldn't keep me waiting forever while they were inside. Plenty of drivers out there will pull forward and be in the store for 20 minutes. But they won't do it to one of their own. You'll see it soon enough. Nevertheless, if we see each other again I'm buying dinner :)
