Hard time backing today

Hello everyone. If you were at the gfs in Brighton mi today around 11:30 am I'm sorry it took me 45 minutes to back into my dock. Dock 3 can eat my dick. I'm pretty new to the game so I didn't know I could ask a switcher to park it for me. Thank you to the other driver that stood out in the rain and guided me in. By far the worst backing experience I've had and I know it won't be the last time.

We all have days where we spend an hour wiggling into a dock. If someone tells you otherwise, they're lying.

I got 20 years driving and some days I can’t back for shit.
Did you hit anything besides the dock? Then you’re good.
Don’t get in a hurry, you will just fuck shit up in a hurry.

It's alright man. When I was new, I got sent to some Volvo factory in Virginia. They wanted the parts at an off-site with one outdoor dock. Tried for 30 mins before they told me just to drop it at the plant. Felt like an idiot. One year later I backed in first try with no pull ups at the same place.
If ever in doubt, ask a yard dog if they can help.

It happens, my friend. Sometimes you nail the back; sometimes the back nails you. And some places are just a lot harder to back into. Keep your chin up. It gets easier.
