    Unfortunately yes, people are that stupid.

    An alarm contractor I deliver to always has people parking in front of the door where I have to unload wire. :mad:

    Sounds like it's time for a little income for the tow truck.

    Ive had people go to the back of the building, we got 12 docks, and they pull up in front of the main one, sideways, i have in the past drivin over on a big ### 6 wheel fork and said, hey need ya to move, thats a active dock. Them:"Ill only be a min" me: no problem, i can move it with this. (Dead pan delivery) they look at me and after a few seconds decide they would rather not risk me being serious...

    We had some idiot show up at the terminal the other day with a Penske truck for a dock pickup. This genius put the back of his truck at the end of the ramp, blocking the whole thruway, instead of simply backing into the dock door NEXT to the ramp. :rolleyes: :banghead:

    If they don't move their car, then I leave and tell them to reschedule the load when they can move the cars.

    As a local driver I can do that lol. For otr, well different story
