No no, nothing like that. It was more a case of:
The people who requested the transport of the pallet of kegs, didn't want to pay for 2 pallet spaces, so double stacked the kegs. Not a problem usually, as the other pallets of goods provide it additional support (blocking).

As this was the last job of the day, it needed to go to Victoria, so I had to lug it around most of the day, and drop it back to the depot so it could be loaded onto a truck bound for Victoria.
The people driving in front of me approaching an empty roundabout decided at the last minute to brake suddenly for no apparent reason, forcing me to either make an insurance claim... or do my best to avoid a rear ender (which I did)... at the time expense of re-stacking the pallet.
Oh, let me add that the driver probably spoken really good chinglish.
The pic you see is what it looked like when unloaded from my truck. Just a hassle.

So.. all good in the hood as they say.


Cheers,

One Man
