[QUOTE="gandydancer, post: 504365, member: 9310"] If it were on two tires and a leg it would be horizontal. It was on one tire, a leg, and a corner, and with part of the leg structure collapsed there was no assurance the rest of it was going to hold up. Also the contents were breaking through the walls of the trailer and there was no assurance that the wall would hold either. Inexperienced people -- management -- who weren't structural engineers took risks without calculation. And that's a fact. At UPS the fire extinguishers are just to meet code. In the event of a fire company policy is that you can be fired for fighting it. [/QUOTE]
