Sounds like the place I was at just outside of Lebanon TN that couldn't load 6 rolls of paper because they were on inventory.
What if it Snows?

Now I need to start asking does this "live load" involve cross docking a container?LoSt_AgAiN, Sirscrapntruckalot, Vic Firth and 7 others Thank this. -
And why it should take more than 15 minutes to do it is what we're all asking
LoSt_AgAiN, Sirscrapntruckalot, homeskillet and 6 others Thank this. -
I can remember my dad and grandpa digging ditches that way when i was a kid. A mile of ditch could be done in a day or less instead of a week.

Ok.
Bribery may be illegal in some places.
I offered the guy and two others something to drink cause it’s fricken hot out here.
My fridge gets sodas super cold, the 3 accepted, (I keep 6 drinks plus crangrape and orange juice, sometimes milk for my Frosted Flakes, don’t ask how I forgot the milk..)
But one of the guys ended up being a supervisor.
I’m getting loaded now.LoSt_AgAiN, Sirscrapntruckalot, WesternPlains and 7 others Thank this. -
It also answers the question of why did this guy make this appointment so late.LoSt_AgAiN, Sirscrapntruckalot, WesternPlains and 7 others Thank this. -
I can't tell you guys how much I miss the experience of being at someone else's whim as to when I get loaded.
Years ago, a place in Tennessee insinuated I could get loaded today (my appointment time was the next morning) if I could find a way to "motivate" them. I declined and said I would find a parking spot for the night.
"Man, you truck drivers don't make money like you used to. Whatever, I will load you now just to get this crap off my dock."
I accepted the offer at 25 years old, but I would definitely sit there until the morning appointment time now. Try and shake me down. Pffft.LoSt_AgAiN, WesternPlains, lovesthedrive and 5 others Thank this.
