Something weird happened to me last night.

I was driving my Escalade around the parking lot of this processing plant here in town.

As I drove by one of the trucks, I SWORE I saw an employee asleep at the wheel... ARG! I immediately turned him in to my boss.

Lazy bastard!

Truck drivers do nap while waiting to be unloaded/loaded. Maybe it was legitimate. In_The_Wind Jun 2016 #2

Well, Tobin wasn't asleep on the job but I know another DU trucker who sleeps while on the job. Last night he drove a load of lettuce. His boss apologized (in advance) for the 3 hour wait to unload. It was a day-cab so he napped at the wheel.

Thanks for the link.
