This is a true Story but funny;
I was at a shipper parked out of the way waiting for a Door. There was another driver from a local Trucking COmpany and they put him in a Door. Really easy door to get into. He comes ask me to back out of the way so he could get into the door. Ok, Not going to tell him I did not need to, just backed up and watched. He had a really hard time backing into the door.
Shortly afterwards they asked me to back into the door next to him which was not as easy. I went right back into it. The other Driver dropped his Trailer and went to hook up to a loaded trailer. He rolled up the landing gear, air hoses and electric cable. HE was talking to some other guy and when he saw me walking into the building to count the boxes they are loading, Their Rules) he decided to show off. Big Pete, Big Motor....
He gunned the Go pedal, and the Pete Took off, the Trailer did not. The trailer bounced 3 times off Cement lot. The Company had to go out with a forlift and pick up the trailer so he could hook up to it again.
