When over fighting in a parking lot we drop the front jacks down just enough to take some of the load off the rear of the truck. I don't even unplug the RV from the truck, so far it hasn't had a negative effect on us.

I'm glad you pull into a parking lot for your fights rather than doing it while driving down the road. :D
If we are out of level enough that the fridge is a concern, I would be moving to a different spot. That said, propane fridges are pretty durable. Ours is original at 18yrs. Other than the temp setting button sticking occasionally, it just runs. My dad's 1978 model still works fine.
The only thing I would add is in the morning go thru as if you are hooking up and do everything. Way too easy to hop into the truck and forget to hook the power cord back up or worse, the landing gear is down. It's when we cut corners is usually when we make stupid mistakes.
