"Joseph, I need you to work truck tonight."

Joseph hated working truck. Even though it meant some extra cash, it also meant more hours and less time to do his homework that night. Plus his mom always gave him hell for staying late.

Shortly after 8 that night the truck arrived and Joseph put on his freezer gloves and went out back to open the door connecting the enormous freezer to the parking lot.

"What's up kid?" shouted the driver.

"Not bad. Just these 4 palettes up front?" Joseph asked as he opened the back to the 18-wheeler.

"That's it. I'm going in to take a leak. I'll be out in 5 to help ya."

Joseph began unloading the boxes from the wood palettes, sliding each of them down the steel slide into the storage freezer. After he finished unloading he would have to break down all the boxes and bring them out to the dumpster.

Then home for calculus.
