    If you use it at West Allis you will most likely get a call from your driver asking to guide them in because the driver app will try to bring them in from the side. I don't know why it does that but back during my short stint as an Uber eats driver, more often than not when I went to a business it seemed to like to take me to the back side of it. Guess they haven't fixed that.

    I'll just hang out at home if I'm at the West Allis lot.

    You would think that with all the information the bendix system and other systems on the truck gather that there would be a way to receive a monthly report on your driving. Like following instances, lane migration, hard braking, fuel usage. what times of the day do most instances occur. What days of the week.
    Wonder if anyone keeps track of things like that.

    Sounds like a job for Crystal Reports...which reminds me too much of my old job. *twitch twitch*

    Dude, this is messed up. Just thought I'd share this as a PSA. I picked up a load at a DR Pepper plant. Believe it or not, it's a hazmat load. It's concentrated DR Pepper that I can only assume is for fountains. Not just one placard, mind you. TWO! Class 8 (corrosive) and Class 3 (flammable liquid). That's gonna make me think twice before grabbing a pop ever again. Christ, man. If America only knew...

    I've always known that Coca-Cola concentrate was corrosive, so that doesn't surprise me too much. Didn't know it was flammable, though.
    Doesn't bother me much, though. I drink liquor and it's also flammable.
     
    dwells40 and Steelersjunkie Thank this.

    So here's where I'm at with that. Liquor is flammable, and apparently this crap is flammable. Both are meant for drinking. One serves well with fast food. One is a key to relaxing and unwinding and helping you get through this mess we call life. Clearly you see poison like me. I'll take the one that actually works to satisfy a need.
     
    dwells40 Thanks this.

    Like another friend pointed out to me: Anything in excess is harmful. This includes both booze and Dr. Pepper although if I had to choose my killer between the two it would definitely be booze.
