Only a man is capable of this kind of efficiency due to our superior spatial awareness.

That actually looks like one of during Summer/Fall in college jobs I had!

When Holiday Inn still had their worldwide HQ in Memphis I was in charge of a section of a warehouse for used office furnishings. I was the guy they called to move Jane from International Accounting from her cubicle to a window office when promoted, or Joe in Sales NE Region from a regular windowed office to the corner office with 2 windows. (corporations have got all these little petty perks for levels, carpet/no carpet, 1 window or 2, door or no door, cubicle wall height, even wall hangings: picture size, number of colors, people vs plants vs animals, etc.. Written guidelines on it even!)

When they would move an entire division from building A to building B or up/down a floor I'd hire anywhere from 2-20 temps and we'd load the company pickup with a literal ton of desks, chairs, file cabinets, plants, spindle globes...you name it.

Of course i'd only drive a couple blocks at most loaded down like the OP photo and the pickup was clearly marked on 3 sides "Holiday Inn" so cops would just wave.

Early 1980's and a couple of the exec's back then had $20k desks it would take a forklift to move. Call the glassman to take out the picture window glass, stick the forklift in the window.

I was working there when Korean Airlines got shot down by the USSR. History Channel Article. Was walking through 1 section of 3rd tier execs, they were huddled around a globe trying to figure out where it happened that following week. I stopped, walked over, spun the globe around, put my finger on the spot, said "there". As I walked away I heard them asking, "who's that guy and how did he know?" They were looking around S. Africa at the time. LMAO

If safety was really first we wouldn’t drive at all.

I love when DOT is out there harassing box trucks and tractor trailers, while they openly let jackasses in pickups with pallets stacked 20 feet high, go right by, even though you can see the pallets are swaying and about ready to crash, but hey DOT, go get that box truck with a mud flap that just ripped, he is such a hazard to everyone!!!

And the POS cars pulling three behind them tied together with rope or whatever they can find.

C'mon, that can't be as dangerous as a Tractor trailer who has 12 lights on the back of his Trailer, and one of the 12 is out. That 1 of 12 out could cause a catastrophe

Truth, they know the owner of the big rig can pay for the ticket. The car in tow driver would probably just abandon them on the side of the road.
