I Almost Burned The Place Down!

Hello everyone.  Praise the Lord!

I had my regular schedule load of Freon to Daikin in Waller Texas this morning.  I went across the street and got the loaded container for tomorrow.  It all went very smoothly until I got to the yard.

When I got to the yard, Cole said that he didn't have anything else to do.  So I ate lunch in the driver's room.  There were four of our Brownsville driver's there talking up a storm.  They were so loud that someone from the office had to tell them to calm down!

I was waiting for my loading appointment across the street and so I thought I would make some popcorn in the popcorn machine.  I followed the instructions to do it, hooked up to the trailer I needed to load, come back and the popcorn machine was smoking and some popcorn in the machine was black and smoking!

I quickly cleaned up the machine and threw away the burnt popcorn and seeds!  It was smoking up the building, so I propped open the door to the shop!

So I thought it best to go across the street early!  Good thing that I did because a line had formed at the gate.  Four trucks were in front of me.  The first two were waiting on something, I bypassed them, but it still cost me forty-four minutes!

I had to wait another hour in the "corner.". Finally got loaded and out of there!  I guess I need more training from Adam on the popcorn machine.
