Final delivery

Afternoon to ya. Well the first two deliveries went pretty well but our final delivery had some goofy people.  They let us in a door an hour early, and had us fully unloaded in less than an hour. So, the lumper comes out and asks us to move from the door so another truck can get in and our bills will be out in a minute. Then he turned around and said stay where we are and he would be right back.  I waited 30 minutes and finally go inside to find out what is going on. I talk to the guy and he said one second, he’s going to get the bills right now. I waited another 15 minutes then gave up and went back to the truck.  Thirty minutes after that, the guy comes to the truck and asked us to sign the bills – except they weren’t our bills!  So, there he goes back in again and we still have no signed bills. I waited yet another 30 minutes and went back in to throw a fit because now it’s been more than an hour just waiting on bills. Guess what? Everybody was at lunch. I wait more. Give up again and go back to the truck. Finally,  after two hours of simply trying to get my bills back, we got them. We started our 14 hour clock at 130am this morning with lastnights deliveries and we were running out of time. We managed to make it to Rogers, Minnesota to park. We rolled around the parking lot but not a single free spot open. We went around the block again and gave upland decided to go ahead and pay for a parking place since we had no time left to get anywhere else. So, we are done for today. We will start again tomorrow morning after a nice rest, go pickup our preloaded trailer and head for Texas!!!
