    1. What was he doing falling asleep? He should have gotten several hours sleep @ Coke, I always did.
    2. It's great you guys got that back from the scumsucking cretins in Petaluma that had it for a while.

    Yea I don't know for sure, if I start to nod I pull over regardless for twenty minutes or so.

    None of us are happy to get that account back. You have to back into an alley than back all the way down the alley and blindly across another street to deliver coke here.

    That is a tough back, especially with the traffic it's as bad as anything in sanfransisco.

    I think that driver fell asleep because running for home you will push it harder then you should, I just said the hell with it and quit.

    I've done the alley too many times.

    Jackwad wouldn't give me a dump valve, but he'd whine endlessly about the trailer tires I was tearing up.

    First Caltrans shut us out of pulling into their driveway to get straight down the alley, then somebody abandoned a small motorhome right there on the corner so you couldn't properly set up to start backing, then the people living at the far end of the alley were calling the cops if we stopped there to untie, then there was the lawyer at the other end that went postal on one of our drivers, then there's that funky ramp they use to unload you.................

    Thinking about all this makes me a lot less pissed about my current gig.

    Been to anchor and i think I could be worse if there is another truck in the dock or in the afternoon, fortunately I've always lucked out and not had a lot of trouble there.

    I just noticed on the Bettendorf website, they have, or used to have, a yard in Quincy. It's mentioned on the main page but it's not an available location on the application. Anybody know anything about that?
