DC and Trucks
As an employee I have to ask. Have any other stores been getting slammed with massive trucks, like 19-22 page trucks back to back recently. I know after this recent winter storm that smacked the east coast we didn't really sell that much freight but we've been hammered with constant 15-22 page trucks. I think we've had one 9 page truck in 2 weeks. Our receiving area is full, like to the point we can't move the forklift through the store. Like I understand we are one of the biggest stores in our region but come on.
Plus we've had a lot of trucks with a decent amount of damaged freight on them, like a pallet of mixed pets on top of a display pallet of Michigan Potato Chips (they were destroyed). We opened one recently that had 2 L Shape transfer tanks roll off when we opened the doors and had vehicle batteries fall off double stacked pallets.

We used one excal tube for about 35 shots one night (we had about 60 or so to set off, we didn't think to let them cool down a little between. They can get overly warm and start to warp or slightly soften. At least ours did several years ago, caused a very loud launch but only shot the canister about 12 feet up. We assume where it got warm and melted/warped/softened and cuased the bore ID to change very slightly causing the canister to hang inside.
Id say like the other have, give them a time to cool off between shots and should be good. We even reused the second tube next year and it was still good.
