    Yes sir~! Around the same time as you, also. Found an article about him on Live Trucking dot com and it went from there to his FB page. I "borrowed it" but at least I quoted him, LoL.

    I'm back at the place in OP, but have more sad news.

    Report of blind side backing freak out.

    We have a new driver see, is gender really important? , and I'm told by the JBH yard goat, there was substantial freak out / hissy fit the other day.

    Fortunately being a man of impeccable character, yard goat guided her in.

    I am ashamed.

    BUT

    Today, I witnessed a most prestigious carrier fail, also displaying moderate to severe hissy, and another driver from said same carrier, dock the truck.

    Bollard remains down, serving as a reminder that bollards matter.

    LULZ.

    That's one of the dumbest safety measures I've ever seen. I'm assuming all those are just to protect the walkway?????

    probably the same driver coming to the docks at different times and they say for laughs, put it in the next dock over every time just to see if he does it again lol

    Here's the next level, literally.
    Uphill, into a tight funnel at the dock, diagonal, no room.

    Put that in your pipe and smoke it.

    When I got there, I was going "Please don't let that be the dock."
