My husband works here and I can tell you from waiting to come pick him up from work and dropping him off, these boys work hard to provide quality to the costumers! But to be honest, I don't know why someone who hasn't been there in as long as Samson has would be complaining. I mean it of was my truck being unloaded by a 1200+ pound grapple being controlled from that high in the air I think I would want them to take there time so the grapple didn't hit my truck or trailer. Seems he would want his truck to not get hit over a worker rushing to do his job instead of having an operator being rushed
