WTF? :shock:

FAIL!! Slightly over loaded.

Check what it says on the back of the cart. "Mail Only". :lol:

Some don't give a shit about what carts they use. :?

This was on Superbowl Sunday, right here at DFW, btw.

You dumb bastard GBot- I had bags packed so high on my Amtrak carts, an entire freight train couldn't handle it! I managed to throw them all on the baggage car and then in the downstairs bathrooms of the crew car. I know I broke a camera or two on that stop. "Fuck em" was my motto then.

Did I ever tell the story of the asshole who wanted his entire house shipped to Portland, OR and was such an asshole I shipped all his shit to Portland, Maine? hahahaha

Um yeah it is. That guy was a prick. Called me a "time wasting piece of waste." Fuck him, his wife and his two homely kids. Get your shit in 2 weeks not 2 days asshole.

LOL, I still to this day laugh out loud.

While Dean is probably right about the guys wanting to get inside to see the game, that cart was WAY overloaded, but there's a reason for that. There are "supposedly" (bullshit) enough pieces of equipment to handle any job, but if you've ever transferred flights at DFW, you'll know that's it's a monstrous place, and finding that piece of equipment might be an arduous task. So they do what you've seen in that picture. Albeit, not many times to that extreme. And there's a reason for THAT. According to rules, there has to be a ground equipment maintenance person "on the clock" to maintain each piece of equipment "in service". So they minimize the "in service" pieces of equipment, to reduce man power. That, along with our asses being always in a big hurry all the time anymore, is why your luggage gets smashed, scratched, or dented. Sad, but true.

And Deano, I'm all set to get hammered. :lol:

Rick! Totally OT from this, but Lynn and I got such a kick out of the bathrooms in DFW being labeled "Toilets" instead of restrooms or bathrooms, etc. :lol: Not sure why that's so funny...maybe what I drank tonight :lol: :oops: :lol:

Well I guess it's better than "Shitters" :lol: I actually hadn't noticed that, to be honest. Toilets sounds kind of "military' or something. Leave it to DFW to be that way. :lol:

Nope...we call them "latrines". Some branches (Marines, Navy) call it "The head". Sorry... had to get all technical on you. :lol: Carry on! :wink:

Toilet is a ridiculous word. Who even says that?
I thought the military term for it was 'latrine' or 'head'. I always hated that... "I gotta hit the head."
I always want to go "How about I hit you in the head?"

Reminds me of the movie Christmas Vacation. Randy Quaid is dumping his "RV's" contents into one of the street drains, and sees an uppity neighbor watching and says "Shitter's full!" :lol:

Omg, I know. :roll:

My boss says that. I don't know if it's because she has an 8 year old at home and can't relieve herself (ha!) of that habit of saying it, or what, but I always think "My god, your kid isn't HERE... just say 'bathroom'!" :lol:
