    No dullard bollards are going to stop that guy from his work.

    I'd higher him, then tell him to take it a little easier on the lift, seems he hit the bollard with the tire just before the turn a little harder than nesicary.

    Nix that. After watching again it seems the tire does not touch. Yup I'd hire him.

    There's a company in Chicago located on a street that's too tight for a big truck to get into for deliveries so what they do is give you instructions to start making the turn, go as far as you can go and then stop and call the shop foreman, who sends out a bigass forklift that lifts and moves the rear of the trailer over so that you can finish the turn.

    Forklifts is wonderful things.

    If you can't make it precise make it adjustable.
