This is my definition of a bad day at work.....
1st, my parts runner gets in a head on just up the road with another pick-up. Nobody hurt, Thank God but pick-up is totalled as the frame is bent.
Pictures below...
2nd, right about the time the truck gets wrecked we have a Rocket Scientist Driver that attempts to drop a Haz Mat Style tanker full of gasoline down back in the mud, he did stop quick enough to keep the tank sitting on the rear frame rails of the truck when he unhooked so it didn't nose into the ground. But after a few minutes it started to tip over.
We had two wrecker calls in about 5 minutes, one to fetch my pick-up and one to get control of the tanker.
I asked for a volume discount... ... ... . :{
No pictures of that episode, I was otherwise entertained.
3rd, One of the night shift techs backs our big tandem axle delivery truck out of the shop and continues backing right into a brand spanking new Nissan Altima hanging off the back of a disabled car carrier dropped in the yard by (you guessed it) yet another wrecker!!!!... ...
Pictures below.....
I am dreading today!!!!!
It all could have been much worse, I realize and am thankful for that but was still a challenge... ... ... ... .
