    As much time as you spend at that Indy Pilot you must have seen a lizard before. They are so prevalent there I hear they accept PFJ reward points.

    Man, I pull in, I get my Indian food, then I close the curtains. There could be a zombie apocalypse in that parking lot and I wouldn't know.

    Anybody know if the Lineage warehouse in Riverside will let you park on their lot if you have a delivery later in the day? The way my hours are looking, the only way I'm going to legally make my delivery on time is if I park there at the facility. They've got that big dirt lot across from the docks, and I know guys sleep there after they get loaded/unloaded. But I dunno if they'll let me in several hours early to park there.

    I'd park on the street, but I've heard of folks (Redtwin, maybe?) getting a ticket there even though there aren't any "No Parking" signs.

    They will let you in early. In fact, they’ll probably unload you early. Don’t be surprised, if you think you’re early and they tell you you’re actually late, then you have to pony up a late fee. It’s called piss poor scheduling back in colonial heights.
     
    Redtwin and ExtremeUnction Thank this.

    How early is "early", though? My appointment time is 1:00am Friday, local time. But I should be rolling in around 3:00pm Thursday, local time. So that's a good 10 hours early. Think they'll balk at that? Or will they let me in anyways?

    I guess I'll test the waters anyways. Can't hurt to ask. Worst they can do is say "no", and then I'm no worse off than I would be if I just headed straight to Colton or the Royal truck stop.
     
    Redtwin Thanks this.
