    So if it's 110 and no AC, why bother showering?

    I ask them to turn it on full power to get people through there faster

    I love the TA petros for showers, I rarely fuel there but that's where I'm sent for repairs and the shop will comp you a shower while they work on your truck, even a quick fix gets ya a free shower. Great big shower heads, high power water and even a blow dryer at most TA's

    I don't #### on the floor. It's pretty simple, actually. I get that cleaning the showers is a crappy job, but I do my part to make it easier by gathering all garbage in the waste basket, placing the used towels in a pile together near the door, and leaving things otherwise neat. I can't afford big tips, and I'm not the one making the job hard.

    Some of the Pilots used to use some sort of "cleaning product" in the past that would leave the wet shower floors very slippery but they seemed to have gotten away from whatever they were using. I know what you mean with how they were sometimes ridiculously slick to the the point you could hardly stand up even being extremely careful.

    Also, some floor materials are more prone to be ultra-slick than others. They have to walk a very thin line using a material and cleaning products that does not harbor mold and is not overly slick

    I would have at least brought it to their attention that their shower setups are overly dangerous.

    Oh but I did, and they acted like what do I want them to do about it; clean it right so no one else gets hurt.
