It's a Team's Life

Glad of our Straight Truck

The driveway was surprisingly long back to the docks as it wound around the back of the casino and almost to the other side. As I drove around one corner another small delivery truck was coming out and I thought our mirrors were going to rub. Once I saw the docks I thought, crap, I am going to have to back out of this mess and start over. After a three-point turn I was able to squeeze by a pickup that was parked in the way and get into one of the two docks. If in a tractor-trailer there was only one dock would work to be able to back straight into. Even with a team and one person on the ground guiding the driver this would have been a tough delivery but I know that the tractor-trailer drivers we know would have got it done with no damage to the property or their vehicles. Still, I was sure glad we were in our straight truck.

What in the world were they thinking when they built this very beautiful and large casino?
