    One of these things is not like the other. Not my loads but two 18’ wide dump beds. IMG_8489.jpeg

    I was running US-56 in OK one day when a trooper stopped me and basically made me pull into some field to get out of the way of one of those

    Channeling my inner @supersnackbar.
    Called the shipper to confirm loading time of 0700. “Oh yeah we start at 0600 just come in and flag down a forklift and we will get you loaded. Should be a quick chain and go load.” I arrived at 0700 to a non English speaker blocking the gate, sound asleep. Another one pulled in behind me. We all get staged at 7:15 and they come and tell us “everyone is in a meeting until 8:30. They can’t load us until they get paperwork from the office people.”

    cool! Awesome! It’s not like I have to be 300 miles away with a pilot car by 3pm or anything.
     
    D.Tibbitt Thanks this.
