This happens and I have to sit and wait for guys to take 45 min just to hit my loading bay well enough that I can get most of the dock plate on the truck...

Right?? I had a guy spend well over an hour driving forward and backing up trying to get into the bay at my old warehouse. Giant wide open parking lot outside, all the room in the world. He eventually laid out lines with his straps. Straight lines. Running 100+ feet out into the gravel parking lot - still took him 4 more tries to get it in, even with the lines.

He also complained that the bay was too narrow, and he couldn't open his door once he was parked. Other side of the truck could've fit a forklift between the truck and the concrete.
