[QUOTE="browniehound, post: 1098299, member: 4653"] Absolutely happens to most! Happened to me a few times where I forgot to close the door and lucky for me nothing fell out. However, my route is .5 miles from the building and never put the safety chain on because the rule is to put it on only to and from area. Well, I'm on area as soon as I leave the yard. Anyway, I left and sure enough the back door popped open and about 10 Dell computers were scattered down Dudley road for the .25 miles to the first stop. I only knew about it because a driver from NEW PENN stopped his 18 wheeler on a busy road to tell me I dropped 10 computers on the road! LOL. Yeah, now I use the safety chain every day(there was a problem with the back door that got fixed after I wrote it up after this embarassment) and I did recover every package in the road. The trail was about 1/8 of a mile long! AND the New Penn driver helped me pick them up. (and NO, nobody from management saw it!) Gotta love our fellow teamsters! [/QUOTE]
