York, PA wal-mart and Sam's club is the same way. The managers don't like it, but they can't do anything about it. I say we as truckers send a letter to Wal-Mart and ask that they use their influence to stop this anti-truck sentiment.

It is not fair that a small minority if "Drivers" out there are setting such a poor example for all the public to see that they have just put all in the same class.
I was at the T/A in Bloomsbury, NJ last night talking to a few drivers about there companies ( Looking to get into becoming a driver) and was out in the lot talking to a guy and this slob of a "steering wheel holder", as the gentleman I was talking to refered to him as, climbed out of his truck, still wearing yesterdays lunch all over the front of him and I think some of it was leaking out of the back of him
, dropped 2 pi$$ bottles on the ground an kicked them under the truck next to him. The guy I was talking to said something to him andthe guy had the nerve to tell him to "mind his own f'n business". I just stood there in disbelief that this guy had the nerve that he did and didn't think twice about it.

All of you should have gone over, got the bottles, and dumped them in his sleeper. If you could stand the smell inside the truck.
I saw a fresh puddle of urine, fecal matter and toilet paper next do the driver's door of a truck at a TA in PA a few weeks ago. I wish the truck stops would review their video, identify the drivers and bill their companies for the clean up.
In fact, I don't understand why these companies even hire these slobs. They HAVE to know just going by the condition of the truck!

I sure wish we could do something to improve our image but it seems these days for every 1 driver that still has self respect there's 4 steering wheel holders with food stains, greasy hair, and general dislike for soap and water. I hate these people for what they have done to trucking. We were looked up to and admired at one time. Now we are looked at like we are scum. I could probably pimp whores and sell crack and be held to a higher regard. We really need to do something to improve our image.

I had a swift driver nearly dump his pee cup on me as I was checking my tire pressure on my trailer at the love's in Weatherford, TX. He was nosed in next to the grass. I will use a cup if needbe but always dump.it on grass or dirt so it can be absorbed and recycled.
