    I got one . Long long time ago just starting out didnt know my my ### from my elbow, pulled up to a pump threw the handle up filled up the one tank i had at the time walked in to pay. The driver in front of me was arguing with the cashier that there was no way he put #### near 200 gallons in his drivers side tank........... yup i filled up on his satalite while he had the pump on. Paid him cash for the differance and beat out fast as i could

    Haven't done anything yet , but I have a feeling my day is a coming , and when it does . I will share. Lol

    Edit ; oh , wait there was one thing kinda funny .

    On one of my very first live load , I went in they said " ok , back into the door , and leave your doors closed" hum , ok easy enough , any how . When I got to my final , went gave them paper work , they said " back into door ## " ok easy enough .

    Well I never opened my doors , hour later they called , and said " if you want us to unload you your doors have to be open "

    Its not that funny , but it was because the lady was laughing so hard when she called me.

    I forget to turn the valve on my front trailer at least once a month and wonder why she is a NO GO.

    Gives me more exercise.
