[QUOTE="Ms.PacMan, post: 1096995, member: 4656"] I didn't see the gold call tags in the shipper books mentioned. It took me ages to remember there was no longer a spot in the old books to mark (remember 5 to a page books!) the call tag number. I used to deliver to the county fair. The carnies would have their trailers parked in two rows. I'd make a big circle around the midway, honking the horn like crazy then drive to the middle of the trailers. I'd throw open the back door and start making piles of boxes on the ground. If you think carnival workers are a motley crew in the day, you should see them first thing in the morning! They would all walk to the truck to collect their stuff. It was all COD and I actually had to do the math! They would all pay me in dollar bills. I would have literally $1000 dollar bills! I'd drive back to the building and grab a handful of turn in envelopes, run up to the office and dump all the dollar bills and envelopes on the center manager's desk for him to sort out. Nordic tracks - I delivered one to the 4th floor of a bank once and said, "Well, there's your first workout - strapping it to the Corolla and getting it home!" She thought I was kidding. [/QUOTE]
