This guy parked his rig in the wrong spot and paid for it dearly luckily he was not in the truck at the time this happened. I would hate to half to explain to the boss or insurance company as to why the truck was parked where it was.   http://pureluckdesign.com/other/squish/index.htm

wonder if he still has a job

The skid marks indicate he pushed that truck about 40' under his tire before he figured out something was not going right. I'd like to see a 8500# truck get rammed through the dirt sideways. How would you open up that explanation to the boss? I bet that was a bad day for everyone any way you slice it.
