Sweet Hole
I went inside and did paperwork.
When I came back out, I had three thousand dollars cash in my pocket and the delivery address in my hand.
"You'll want to check the tiedowns," Melissa said.
"I always do." I walked the trailer and checked every strap. One looked tight, but when I pulled on the tightener, it slipped. It wasn't one of mine. I called the foreman.
"This tightener isn't mine. It slips. Mine are marked with an ST stamped into the metal."
"Sorry. Someone's ass will fry." He motioned to one of the dock rats and told him to find my tightener, swap it for the bad one, and throw the bad one in the trash. Half an hour later, we were on the road.
