If he parked next to you and there was no trash. Then he left and there was trash. Who put it there. Maybe God put it there.

You got reasonable info get it to use. Individually we can decide how good the info is. We don't need to ridicule peoples posts.

Thanks for the info.

You will always have people in this world who will do things, that you would normally think is wrong. But that is life and we can't do much to change it either. Just as long as you do what is right ie..(pee in the truck stop or rest area, throw your trash away in a schneider barrel) Who care what others do even though it is wrong..

I don't understand the tree hugger comment or the other one. I guess you just have to make a comment for no reason.
You sound like you gotta be fair and balanced. Why didn't you just read the posters info and leave it at that.

Your the one post'n just to post.

Politically correct comment, like a tree hugger trying to step in and save every tree, your trying to step in and save the day. In this case you trying to save Schnieder because the poster didn't see the event, the dumping of the trash. If there was no trash when he got there and there was a truck that parked next to him and then there was trash then the driver left it there. What the heck????

Why did you have to imply the comment on third worlder? You could have just read the posters info and also left it at that.

Are your comments supposed to be better than mine?

All I intended was to show that the "third worlder" as you referred to, could be no worse than the average joe trucker who does the same thing.

If this offends you, I am sorry. But I felt a comment was needed to clarify the issue.

My point is that you gotta be some kinda savage to dump your trash, etc., all over when you gotta trash cans. Even if you don't have a can keep your trash till you run in to a can. Purhapes you would like me to say , it don't matter where there from, or what color they are, or what reliogn they are or what sex they are..........

Way to many "politically correct huggers" gotta throw in their 1 cent in. What's that all about.
Hey you know how hate crimes are now days.
I guess you believe in all that fair and balanced dung. Oh well, Ok.
Balanced?? Smelly for sho.

Are you trying to save the third worlders honor. I was comparing the driver to third world people. Ya, know this kinda conversation can go on & on. Forget about it. It's over.

I too wish you would have gotten the power number and reported it.
I've only been driving for two weeks, and yes, for Schneider, and I know I have, and will make a lot of mistakes. But I'd like to think I am part of a professional group. While I can see the necessity for the bottles, I think if you have to use one, you have to dispose of it properly. Just like any other trash you produce. That's one of the things that give the entire industry a bad name.
