I spent a few hours last week loading gravel at our quarry. There were always four or five trucks lined up waiting to load. As soon as one was loaded he'd pull out and the next empty would come in. That's the way it works...or is supposed to anyway.
I finished loading a truck, he pulled out, and the next one just sat in the staging line not moving. I thought maybe he was taking a nap but when I called him on the radio he said that he was downloading a video to YouTube and couldn't move for awhile. Say what?
I told him that was no problem. Just finish what you're doing, and then drive on out of the quarry...empty...and don't come back.
He got really upset over that. But he didn't get loaded. He told me he'd report me to my boss. That would have been interesting but he never called.
