    ded customer is very tight to begin with. Add in several snow storms and piled snow banks in front of/across from dock doors. Thought i would clear it, was more concerned with not striking the trailer in the door to my left. Was watching real close there , also due to the poor lighting. Caught the front edge of the bumper cover. It had warmed up several times and partially melted before refreezing several times. No give what so ever.

    Just picked up a relay at the Dallas OC that has a massively cracked fitting, no way the last driver could have missed on her post trip. As soon as I flipped the switch to send air to the back the thing started gushing air - I could hear it with my window up and over the sound of the yard truck two down from me. Two wiggles and the thing broke in half.

    I wouldn't be pissed if she had just written it up. Maybe the shop would have gotten it fixed before I got here to make pick up but probably not. At least I would know she didn't intentionally bend me over and do something very not nice to my nether regions.

    Here's my idea - if you drop a piece of equipment that is obviously TBO and don't write it up your name goes on "THE LIST". At the end of the quarter all the drivers who make bonus are invited to the OC where a ring of trailers has been erected. Then we draw names at random from "THE LIST". Two drivers enter, one driver leaves!

    Why would anyone pay for e-mail with so many free options?

    It's a way to keep fake profile trolls out of there. I see the point, but I wouldn't waste my money just to be apart of that forum.
