    Well, according to one poster in here the straight truck belongs to another company, and I do agree this certainly looks like it SHOULD be a very easy dock to access. I'm not advocating hit-and-run, but if all else fails, a little tough love should be employed. There is NO reason why a 6-wheel couldn't do a better job of backing in than that.

    Hell, you could probably say the same for that other idiot park job on the 6-wheeler's right.

    Tell you what I would do, they would either pay me to sit there until noon or I'd roll on down the hwy. I own my own company though so I'm not too worried about them calling the boss.

    These outfits need to police their parking lots. Most of the times, people that work there think there is nothing beyond the dock doors and never even look outside. Most of the blame lies in the with the business, they should have told the driver to move before he left.

    Am I missing something. You have room on driver side to move over right?

    He could of used bungee on door and pulled it in tighter against trailer...and backed in a little off...looks like an older type dock with narrower dock plate...which all he needed was just enough room to get dock plate inside trailer
