    I use to deliver and pick up in the Baltimore area alot. The Baltimore Produce Market across the street from the T/A in Jessup,MD. Was a real crap hole as for the parking area, had to be armed to walk to, or from truck stop from parking lot, security were a real treat to deal with. I see they have added fences, and a security company, but parking is still a mess. Showers suck, and fuel island is messed up as to the set up of pumps

    First and last time I delivered to Lancaster Foods across from there. Had to spend the night. One of the worst places ever. Gauge on the reefer fuel unit got damaged and I ran out of fuel. Spent all this time priming to get the reefer running after fueling. Hands really dirty etc. Couldn't wait to shower and eat. Showers were blah. I just wanted a steak after. I got the best steak they probably had on the menu... Something felt off. I ask my girl to taste it and it tasted weird. .. So tired and late at night I finally realized it wasn't a steak. It was ground beef.. No ribeye at all. Bought a bag of chips and called it a night. Also when I had to re fuel the reefer.. I lost 45 minutes just waiting to get in the fuel isle.

    I go up there too often unfortunately. The restaurant is on par with most t/a's. And they have cleaned it up a lot. But the showers are god awful. I actually made a complaint online a month ago. I've never done that before.

    But a stool with a big skid mark on it and permanently stained sink was absolutely disgusting. I got a call from a manager with an attitude. Wanted to know why I didn't come up stairs and say something. I told him that by the state of that shower it didn't matter who I talked to because they obviously didn't care. I sent him pics. The next day he called back and wanted my card number so he could put a shower back on there. Like he was doing me a big favor. I told him don't bother

    I hear u/ Too many times they place signs in restrooms stating " If bathroom needs attention, or you see something wrong. Please inform desk" You complain, and many times you get either an attitude, or the job is done. Amazing how customer service went out with Bobby Socks and high Buckle shoes.
