I was at pilot in Michigan on I-94 xit 167 I think yesterday and this bozo comes flying through the parking lot and almost hit me while I'm backing into a spot. Then he pulls onto the fuel island and walks inside. I go inside like 5 minutes later and he's in arbys waiting in line to order. He got his food, went back to his truck, ate in the fuel island, then left. I was there to get food too but at least I backed into one of the 15 open spots.

I got yelled at today by a Star Transport driver for pulling up to the pump and going inside. He was right behind me coming in. When I came back out he mother F'd me up and down about not getting fuel.......then I told him I was getting fuel and started pumping. He then yelled at me about taking so long to start pumping and I just laughed at him. Then I finished fueling and pulled up. He flew into the pump and hopped out and stood at the card reader for a minute. I walked back and said "why you taking so long to fuel, you were just yelling me" and he said "the card reader isn't working" to which I replied "no #### Sherlock, now go walk in like I did.....and hopefully some a-hole steering wheel holder won't be yelling at you like they did me"
It felt good lol

Usually I do it this way...

6) come back out and eat the other half of my sandwich
7) cruise through the truck stop to find a parking spot
Go inside, use the rest room, and wash up
All the above is just kidding, of course. I, too, would like to see drivers be more courteous. I try to do my part, though...

I know, things never line up just right like that. Kinda like getting passed by a 4 wheeler going 90mph and a bear being just down the road.
