    Ive always wondered if dumping the air has any weight whatsoever. Freebie.

      I'm a meticulous housekeeper while on the scale. I figure I need to make back the sample at least. Often can find more than that, especially if following a custom trucker.

      Once I had the weight of all the old samples being dumped added to my scale weight, so I suppose that made up for many years of samples being taken.

      I've also watched as they dump whatever samples are in the bucket in the pit along with my grain, wheat, canola, peas, barley all in at once, but for some reason if any of those foreign grains are found in my sample it is dockage which I don't get paid for...

        Newer points have seperate probe point, weigh in scales, dump pits and tare out scales, then on to a ticket window.
        Way faster. And no sweeping. Turn and burn.

          Got a talking too for cleaning wet corn (snow ) off a scale and into a pit from Husky plant. It wasn't much but was going to add up if nobody did something. Nobody but drivers are at the unload so if nobody cleans up after themselves it can pile up in a hurry.
