    Have to go to Stockton some time in the next few days.
    Why, you might ask. Well it’s because some fool decided that product needed to be delivered to a shipping company on the port, first thing Monday morning, after a significant mountain snow storm.

    The Engineer that came up with the idea, his brother is an insurance adjuster, he actually came up with the idea. The whole idea was to be able to deny accident/damage claims from parking lot incidents. They would be like
    “ Why were you doing an unsafe, blindside back?”
    “ Thats dangerous and you should know that”
    Your claim is denied!
