I have my own list of flubs and even after 13 season continue to make them. Maybe it's senility. It used to be I'd forget to hook up the cable to the truck but my wife would catch that when she checks the taillights before heading out.
Now is that I forget to remove the chocks prior to moving the rig so I can remove the wood under the tires.


Flubs are by no means the exclusive domain of the new kids!

We have a laminated check list used with a dry erase marker EVERY time we arrive and leave. Even after 15 years fulltime we still (rarely) catch something we missed.

No person is completely worthless ... one can always serve as a bad example.
