The literal translation is "Drink enough wine and the truth comes pouring out."
The restraining straps are installed on the 4000 shelf. One side of the strap is riveted to the shelf and there is a hole in the shelf to accept the hook. The hand cart does stay in place but tends to roll back and forth. I still place it on the floor behind the jump seat when that space is open.
You did a great job Sober IMO. Way to adjust to changing conditions and get it done. If you would have had a supervisor with you, Im sure they would have told you to do the same thing.
We don't have the hand cart straps either. I just bungee mine to the little wire storage cages in the back behind the drivers seat. No need to buy a bungee, I see them all the time lying on the street. Just pick one up when I can.
It makes sense to have straps for the carts, those things roll all over the place, even when you lay them upside down over a wheel well. I hate that scraping noise they make. They are a saftey hazard for both packages and drivers alike when loose.
Steve, you might ask your mechanics about ordering you a strap or the eye bolts like Scratch mentioned.

That is indeed exactly what it means. I have to give credit to AJ for the idea. AJ and I both love the movie Tombstone. "In Vino Veritas" is part of the Latin exchange of words between a drunken Doc Holliday (Val Kilmer) and Johnny Ringo (Micheal Biehn) in the 1993 movie "Tombstone".Hey Dilli,
You are a very interesting person and I love reading your posts. I just noticed your profile says :" In Vino Veritas". Does that translate to "In Wine there is Truth"? I know I'm probaby wrong but could you please enlighten me? Thank you in advance!

I would have been perfectly within my rights to play the "safety card" and sabotage the whole day by refusing to operate the vehicle or insisting on working out of the back door. This would have created a multitude of service failures on a day when the center was already maxed out. I chose instead to find a way to get the work done. Was I right or wrong to do this?
