Before you hitch up to remove a trailer from our unloading dock, next time, if you could please use that little camera in the truck to make sure that no cargo is remaining in the trailer before you pull away from the dock, that'd be great.
For example. Cargo like me.
Ahahaha, WAL-MART!
Oh, Walmart isn't the defining factor here. The defining factor is Dipshit Truck Driver That Damn Near Took Me Out On The Highway.
Well Wal-Mart has a surplus of dipshit truck drivers.
You get a price break for buying them in bulk.

Company of 2 million-plus people is bound to have some dipshits.
That, however, is above and beyond.
I'm sweeping out the trailer while Mr. Dipshit is dropping off the trailer we'll be unloading tomorrow. I'm in there, just sweeping away, when all of a sudden there's this big-ass jolt. I do not say 'holy shit', but I am certainly thinking it as I tear ass out of there. I have to close that damn thing, fast.
So I get the trailer closed and locked, and the dock door closed and locked. It couldn't have been any more than 30 seconds after I get the dock door closed that Mr. Dipshit pulls away.

I have a new soccer blog The Minnow Tank. Reading it psychically kicks Sepp Blatter in the bean bag.
Gosling do all Wal Mart trucks have a camera in the ttrailer? That seems kind of weird.
Yeah, there's this little bit of plexiglass embedded in the wall of the trailer nearest the driver; there's a camera there. That's what the driver's supposed to use to, among other things, make sure the damn thing's empty.

Gosling...wouldn't he have only pulled you forward 15 feet, seeing as how he'd have to get out and close the back doors after he unhitched.
If I'm close to the edge of the trailer at the time, that's enough to potentially send me plummeting out of the trailer entirely and onto the dock itself. I don't think I need to be thinking about that kind of fall.

We've had multiple drivers doing this, the best part is when the loading dock door slams down from it and gets stuck so you have to have multiple pull it free again.

When trailers are put on the dock we have a docking plate we extend to help us get on and off the trailer. If a truck leaves while someone is on that dock plate it will fall off the edge of the trailer and the person will fall as well.
I am looking forward to my hangover going away and not helping my landlord unload furniture we do not want, need or have room for. He seems to think that it is a good idea to give us new furniture, which is nice, but he has no solution for the two rooms full of stored furniture that we do not want, nor any explanation as to where this new furniture is to go

I think the real question here is what are you people doing in the furniture's rooms?

Lots of commercial vehicles have cctv, internally and externally. The external cams are usually linked to the tachograph and a GPS system. Here is a video that is doing the rounds at the moment (got linked to this at work, it's not one of my or my employer's claims):

Dear lord you are right! We are as the mice who run in the walls all night long waking the good citizens!
So guys, I'm in Mallorca. It is absolutely fantastic.
Though there's one thing. One really annoying thing. The cyclists.
Usually I'm all "yeah cyclists deserve to be on the road and aren't that much of a hassle" but they are so fucking obnoxious here. They all bike two or three a-breast (sometimes four) and get in the way so fucking much.
I mean seriously, the mountain roads aren't that big and overtaking you dickheads is fucking dangerous.

Well, if you will try to drive in the training location of choice for most pro teams...
I kind of feel like this is like going to Newquay and complaining that the beach is crowded with surfers.

Yes, of course.
Because the cyclists obviously own the fucking island in that case, yeah? Just asking for them to show some consideration and be non-douchey.
I mean, when you're biking two or three a-breast and then one of you decides that's the ideal time to overtake, uphill on a very narrow mountain road then you are obviously taking the piss and quite frankly being a cunt.
edit: there's also the element that their actions are endangering everyone else on the road so they're a hazard to the public as opposed to surfers being a danger to well, nobody.
intellectually i recognize that romance has (for me) a pretty major physical component
but still, when i get an okc message from a woman with a fun profile, good taste, interesting occupation... who is not physically attractive to me... i feel awful for not responding
ugh
stupid undefinable guilt

Well, be careful. Spain (and the Balearics by extension) are a presumed liability jurisdiction, where the least vulnerable road user is considered to be at fault unless they are able to prove otherwise, as they are deemed to have the greater duty of care (because a car can do far more harm to the cyclist than vice versa, a truck can do more harm to a car than vice versa, etc.). In car vs. cyclist, that means you'll have an uphill battle convincing the authorities that any accident wasn't your fault.

Ok, you can ignore me. I'm pretty delusional right now from all this medication and pain killers. Being sick sucks.
For some reason I thought you were talking about the Spice Girl.

This isn't a substantial change from the present state of affairs. Though she should get fleas less often.

But imagine he had made the connection and then after unloading the trailer was on the dock plate when the driver pulled out.

No fatalities, oddly enough.
The car driver got spectacularly lucky, but is now facing charges.
well...good then I think. Damn but there must have been some booze involved.
