Re: Random Photos ‘You took’

Some people will do the dangdest things. I tell you what.
Years ago at the lumber yard we had a customer come in and bought 6 sq of shingles and a few little things. He was in a car and I guess the trunk was too full of stuff so he instructed the load puller to stack them on top of the trunk lid. I kid you not! The guy left there with packs of shingles on top of the trunk lid and said it'd be alright, he wasn't going far. Not even a strap on it. I just shook my head in disbelief..
And there was the guy who bought 2 lifts of 5/8" sheetrock and it was loaded on his flatbed trailer. He said no straps necessary, wasn't going far. All of it slid off onto the pavement in the middle of the 4 lane intersection not 30 yards from our store, at noon on a Saturday. And that guy was a teacher at the local college at the time.
