    I haven't worked in 4 days.
    Fell last Friday, broken ankle and wrist, had emergency surgery on my wrist. But its harder to sit at home, than going to work, I actually enjoy working.

    Pull in the West enterance, drive north (against the marked traffic flow) to the delivery door, deliver, back out to the west enterance and then proceed forward in front of the building to the east enterance to make your exit.

    NOTE: This is not a wiggle wagon friendly plan of attack... Not impossible, but very difficult.

    It would be hard enough to get a straight truck in there

    Good idea, but one problem.

    You’d never make the right turn to exit at the east end with a 48’ trailer and a parking lot full of cars.

    I’d probably do it that way with a pup though.

    You need more speed then. Hit those cars doing 50 MPH and they will move

    Heres a fun one I go to VERY regularly with a 53 footer... It's the pallet place on the west side of the street. Both sides of the North end of that street is filled with broke down junker cars from the corner to about where the pin is.

    Jesus im glad i dont have to go places like that. I have enough fun trying not to run over #### at the jobsites thats always stacked in the way. Even better when there is no address and the delivery instructions include either gps coordinates or turn by turn directions that some drunk dude made up when he was half asleep

    Drivers must prove they are competent in reverse before they get sent there... Theres only about 10 of us that get that load.
