    Husband was traveling that area of I-70E where the Petro was at on exit 6. He said it was closed, but looked like 3 trucks made it in. Stopped at several places along the way that had already filled up. He usually travels the late night hours, so this week his hours started out reversed, driving during the day instead. It sure does make it hard to find parking, no matter how many plans you have. They need to open up somemore of the pulloff areas along there to the Somerset area and beyond.

    Getting woken up is one thing. I expected that and when the fuel guy showed up I moved. Getting treated like a piece of #### is entirely different.
    If you think doing your job means treating customers like crap, then I wouldn't want to be a customer of yours...

    I'm pretty sure he was more cheesed offed at her Attila the Hun attitude than the fact he was being asked to move? We're all just doing our jobs,but it'd be a better world if a lot of us didn't act like someone pizzed in our cereal all the time. ;-)

    This is funny. I post pertinent information about truck parking in a bad area that's gotten even worse out of nowhere,and the know it all's show up to trash me.
    Fine- you'll figure it out for yourself when one of you gets stuck in that area.. Don't say I didn't warn you....
     
    TruckDuo, joseph1135 and Guitar Man Thank this.

    That place held a ton of trucks even though it was a dump. Now that it's gone, that area is emergency parking only for me from now on...

    If you think Bentleyville is short of space because of the oil biz, try Williston ND. If you stay too long at a traffic light they give you a parking ticket.

    The scumbag fracking companies rape the earth and them take up all the parking. But we are supposed to just say nothing. Piss on that. Should thrown bricks through their ####### windows for destroying that part of PA.

    When they establish permanent terminals in that area with their own fuel source, that truck stop is screwed because nobody is goin to go anywhere near it.... Pretty short sighted of them.....

    Don't like fracking?
    Don't drive a truck.
