So I’m getting tipped at a diageo site, and I hear this loud as ■■■■ bang crash wallop when they open the doors. Obviously a handful of barrels ave fell out.
5 minutes later one of the guys comes to my door, “driver, I thought I would let you know you have a tail light out, it’s on your side. Just incase you thought it was us”
I tell him my lights were fine when I left yard an hour ago lol… But thanks il change it when you are finished incase u break it again…
Who gives a ■■■■? Why deny it was one of the barrels that fell out lol I have multi-packs of truck bulbs I’ve ‘acquired’ over the past few months…

Is it their fault the load wasn’t strapped down?
Is the lenses smashed on the tail lights then?
Yeah I was thinking the same, surely if they dropped something onto the lights and the bulb don’t work then the lens must be at the very least cracked if not smashed.
Nah think they bounced off the bumper n rattled the bulbs.
Surely there is better ways to unload than opening doors and letting them fall 10 foot, most sites have those racks they roll them onto and lift them off in 3’s or 5’s with a telescopic.
Only funny thing was the it wasn’t me mister that broke it like a school kid.
Was 3 smashed bulbs inside the (un-damaged) lenses.
Isn’t hard if your intelligent, lenses cased in rubber so absorbs shock.
Bulbs are metal to metal contact.
It hits rear of bumper or where ever, and ‘shakes’ inside the lense breaking bulbs but not the lense as rubber conducted the movement.

Fixed that for you.
Good job none of them were injured or you could’ve found yourself in real trouble.

tippin barrels at a Diageo site usually means ,tippin at a whisky bond in Scotland ,from a container imported from usa.
the container would be sealed ,no way the delivery driver could have secured them. and its not his job to open the doors,
[good driver] . don’t you get fed up knowing everything ?

If dropping a keg off the back can cause a bulb (but not a lens) to shake itself to death, then all my bulbs shook themselves to death on all those bumps I hit today ?

Sometimes I use a reflective surface if no-ones around to check break lights.
I’m not the one who is illiterate and can’t spell simple four letter words. What is it like being so dumb?
Glad you found someone opening the doors and facing potentially getting killed funny. I hope that the day you forget to check the brakes are on when you hook up and your wagon crushes you that people laugh.
