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

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:

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?"

Why treat life as a journey to the grave with the intention of arriving in an attractive & well-preserved body? Get there by skidding in sideways, a glass of wine in one hand, chocolate in the other, body totally worn out, screaming WOOHOO! What a ride!

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:
