    I was inside yesterday standing in line at the counter. I over heard a conversation between two clerks and a driver requesting a shower. Apparently someone (a driver) trashed out some of the plumbing in one of the shower's before their exit. The staff was obviously very upset about it. They didn't figure out who or why..

    I noticed the men's restroom was as mess. It appeared as though someone dumped soda all over and left.

    Why on earth would someone do this ? How can this sort of behavior be stopped ?

    It can't be stopped ... contrary to myth, there was never a golden age of drivers being the knights of the road ... like society as a whole, there are good and bad and the stupid will always be stupid.

    What they don't understand, when they do something like this, they're not hurting a big bad corporation ... they are just make life miserable for another working person.

    That place is full of fail. :)

    Roundabouts and driving around the block to get there. The sidewalk/entrance is like some overkill speed bump and the fuel island is usually plugged up. When you do get inside it's so cramped in there it's hard to move around let alone with a long line at the register. I can't imagine is a good experience for the staff either.

    They only way to fix that place is to burn it down and relocate.

    Fail or round abouts its still no reason thrash and trash... The acts give drivers as whole a bad rap. Granted its small and busy but what else is there ? They ought to carve out more of the hill for parking. Money money money..

    The port of entry / weigh station isnt to far going west..

    Doubt it was a driver. Half of the customers in there are 4 wheelers.

    Well if he used his rewards card to redeem a shower they would be able to find out who did it...

    That's what I thought but they claimed its not enough, they didn't know who or why.. a clerk mentioned that they waited for the person to fess up. They were going to demand that whomever go to Walmart across the highway, in walking distance to purchase the parts that were damaged and they wouldn't get the law involved. Last I heard, it never happened.
