Jesus - you'd think they would have learned to use chocks by now. Especially after the hanger incident a few years ago.

After many times of not being able to find chocks, I took to putting a pair in the bagpit. These monkeys travel with crewchiefs, put a set in belly and use them FFS

This wasn't maintenance. Read the story, moving suplies, loaded then went for crew rest without chocks
