    They kept everything. Didn't even document the damaged cases. It was 1 short of one product and 2 over of another.

    Managed to fine a parking space at the Rialto Truck Stop (across from WCC).

    Haha. Today is going to be a good day. Just made a perfect blind side back into South Coast Baking. Blind sides the trailer square right into the dock. Wish I had someone standing outside the truck recording that.

    You do realize later today you're going to try backing into a wide-open parking lot and Miss every spot you try to hit now right?

    Good blind-side backing skills NEVER happen when someone is watching and recording. It's always when you are making 7 pull-ups on a straight-line backing maneuver.

    I do that now. Give a tight f'd spot and I'll hit it every time; give the wide open dock with 40 acres to turn and I'll miss it.

    That is true. I hate blind side, but I can do it. Just not usually this easily.

    That is so the truth.... I'll make some kind of weird backing that I don't know how I managed to happen hit it on the first shot but then I'll go to back into door 216 at Walmart with no one around me and then end up in door 248 for some weird reason..

    So at my Drop the other day, I had a driver refer to his Peterbilt (Same model as the ones we have) as a "Long Nose Pete" and he hoped that I got done before him so he could pull out since he wouldent be able to make it out. (Same 53 foot sliding axle trailer blah blah with AMPLE room between docks and forward pull space).

    I'm afraid if he ever got behind the wheel of a REAL long nose Pete, he'd probably wet his pants....
