There was some youtube guy that got stuck behind a truck picking up bales of recycled material. He was complaining because they had to adjust the other truck’s load a few times (weight and axle ratios or something). Then a bale fell and made a mess that had to be cleaned up.
He said something like “And I have to stay in the truck so when they are ready I can drive in. But this is considered “working” so it eats into my driving time - and it’s been 45 minutes already!”
I have no idea if that is true - but it sure sounded like it.
Probably true. I know someone who works for a grocery warehouse. They were having issues with weights and wasting time to shift pallets or cut items from a delivery because of a few hundred pounds extra in the trailer in some cases and the state they were in wasn’t keen on ignoring critical loads that were overweight by even a few hundred pounds.
