Our very first camping trip with our new trailer. I had printed and laminated a check list, had it laying on the tailgate of the truck while we were hooking up to head home. About that time a neighbor came over asking about the trailer and we got to talking while I still worked since it was very cold out. Started lifting the jack and noticed that the jack really sounded like it was struggling....about that time I remembered #1 on my checklist - "Raise the stabilizer jacks".....
I immediately lowered the tongue jack and by some miracle the rear stabilizers and frame were not damaged.
I no longer use a checklist for hook-up stuff, but I do still use one for packing. I found a free phone app called "Checkli" that works very good.
