I probably shouldn’t have done it.

After all, Derick pretty much fell off the shelf and momentarily forgot what he was doing because he was laughing so hard.

But it was pretty funny.

Steven wasn’t at work yesterday. Danny covered for him.

Actually, I did his primary.

Danny: “Chad (real name: Charles. I have no idea why Danny calls him Chad. Actually, I have no idea why Danny does a lot of things.), why are you laughing? Hey, yall, if you have time to laugh, you have time to come over and help 44-69.”

Right.

next day.

T-N trailer.

I’m using a butane torch to burn a rope off the trailer.

Steve: “Just don’t burn the trailer down. Actually, it’s ok if you do. Just let me know ahead of time.”

Yes, the driver is… “odd.”

I was sitting about 12 feet in front of the Tulsa North driver (I don’t know his name.) I have my feet kicked up and was drinking some water.
Steven, who loads T-N, walks by and reaches his locker, about 20 feet to the driver’s right.
Driver: “Both of the 149 skids fell over.”

Steve: “Really?”

Driver: “Yeah, there was stuff all over the floor, everywhere.”

Steve, without missing a beat, as he walks off outside: “That sucks.”

I started laughing. The driver gave me a look. I don’t care. I’ve loaded T-N before. It’s not fun messing with all the ropes.

Anyway, that was funny. Later I walked by Steven and said, “Hey Steve, did you know that both your 149 skids fell over?”

Steve: “When, yesterday?”

Me: “Yep.”

Steve: “That sucks.”

We both laugh.

Steve: “You know what else?”

Me: “What?”

Steve: “They’ll both fall over tonight, too.”

Ahh…
