    This was the worst (driving) job I've ever had the misfortune of being involved in. Worked for 2days. And gone. God bless you for doing it. Just know you don't have to work like that with a CDL. and you can definitely find something paying better. Like I said. Have it bud. Better man than me

    After unloading the first three it would have been faster to go up with a uboat load the toppers on the uboat and then load the loaded uboat and roll container on the lift rather than make an extra trip.

      Absolutely would have been faster to have taken the uboat up with you and loaded a roltainer on the lift gate while holding on to the uboat. This is also a very small stop but on a large stop it would make a big difference when it comes to speediness. When I get a chance I’ll share a video of how I do things. Thanks for sharing your video.
