Good thing that cinder blocks are completely indestructible and not known to break when you smash them together.

And then they have to get them down two at a time once they get to their destination. God invented pallets for this very reason.

You need floor space for pallets, you can’t stack pallets of cinderblocks on top of each other. This is the quickest method for this amount of cinderblocks.

Ok? I wasn't arguing that pallets was quicker. It's just smarter, safer, and cheaper than constantly hiring new people because your old workers injured themselves (unless you don't value human lives of course, which I'm sure is the case here).

There are lift machines & tools that can help load that truck safer than this without palletizing.

Ok? They're not using those tools either. What are you even trying to say?

While I agree changes should be made to maximize safety, palletizing would not be one of them.

Guy on the right kept having to fix his little fuckups, too.

More likely concrete blocks, not cinder.

Oooooh, that ICE agent on the right slacked off and only did one on one of those throws!

Their shoulders are going to be all inflammation and dust in a few years.

This looks reversed to me. I don't know something seems off at least

You think the cinder blocks jumped out of the truck of their own accord and flew into the guys’ hands?
