That is why I'll go there.

So you have to shower where everyone can see you....no shower curtain? Even in highschool we had shower curtains, I am way to modest to show my stuff.

.........there would be alot more drivers hanging around the showers waiting for you to come in. (sorry, couldn't resist) HOWEVER, you are given the key or entry code to a private bathroom with toilet, shower, sink, mirror, etc. kind of like yours at home. Usually a dead bolt on the inside to assure no one else happens to have the same key or code. Most are secure and clean, but there are some that are marginal. You seem to learn which ones to avoid.

DUH!!!! That makes more since. That doesn't sound so bad. All I could envision was the showers like in those horrible "B" highschool movies where the guys are slapping eachother with a towel. Ughhhh!!!!

Yeah, well, while you're watching the 'sausage-fest', the rest of us were checkin' out the Girl's lockerroom next door!

Seriously, most showers in the large chains are at least acceptable, although every now and then you'll find a susprise. Yesterday I used my last pilot shower credit so I could have a toilet to myself (the bathrooms were beyond disastrous), and found that the previous user (or the cleanup guys) had dropped a deuce without flushing!

Well since I am female, I prefer a sausage fest! Bring on the meat.
