    That is exactly right. That way these big companies can hire the village idiot to drive for them.

    Managed to score an empty at Lincoln. The guy who dropped it wasn’t so lucky. He was supposed to pick up a t-call that turned out to be hooked to a truck nobody had keys for. Watching a wrecker hook up to it now.

    How did the shop not have a key? Or was there nobody in the shop? I would expect at least one person in the shop in case of something like a lockout or some such.

    I get that, but having absolutely nobody in the shop at company HQ seems like someone dropped the ball. The Lincoln yard/shop is a busy place, and it makes no sense to ever have it be completely empty. Even if it's just a single person and they are not allowed to do any maintenance for safety reasons, they could still do inventory, organize stuff, catch up on paperwork, and access keys.
