I do roll-off on occasion. My training was being shown how it works and where to go. I guess they assumed I understood physics.
The most challenging part is either getting to where the roll-off is on the site or getting it loaded/unloaded at a customer without catching any overhead wires/gantries/trees/etc.
You never know how heavy you are until you are already loaded and at a scale. Be mindful of weight, but you can't necessarily leave some behind to get legal.
And, yes, you can find yourself with your steers in the air if you don't get the balance right while loading. This is bad. Review your physics primer if you don't understand why.
Unloading can be messy:

During the the construction boom, 1995-2005, in the N.Va DC area, college educated IT graduates we're pumping honey and driving dumpster trucks and making 100 grand a year. Certainly nothing to sneeze at...so to speak. -
Can those hoses be turned to reverse thrust?

But, I do always think of this where it concerns acclimation to the smell:
