    Had my first Noob experience this morning. I was on top of our load of lumber rolling out tarps, when I slipped on snow and dropped the tarp. I couldn't move fast enough to stop the tarp from rolling forward and off the edge. When the tarp landed it snapped both of my airlines. Boy I feel like a #######. Had to wrap the service line with ducttape to make it to a freightliner dealership 1 mile away. I think next time im tapping in snow I will sweep off the snow before I start tarping.

    Supposed to tarp the load, not the airlines lol Glad no one was hurt. Just got to watch out. I had to climb on top of a load that had ice on it. Always be careful on a load. Its a long way down to the ground.

    When I have a question, I call the WM in question, and talk to the manager of the store. Some of them will be NO, but you'd be surprised what being polite can do. Also, if they say yes, ask if there is a preferred location for you to park your truck.
