Others just have no sense of humor, and others you cannot make happy if you pumped their fuel for them, told them it was free, cleaned their windows and headlights for them AND then weighed the truck for them.
I think what he was trying to say, is that drivers will come in, slap their cards down, get so stressed that their blood pressure jumps up to 200 over a million, then pout and stomp back outside only to "waste time" to have to come back in again.

Really....big deal. Is it really something that will ruin your day, to spend the extra 2-3 minutes walking back inside? be professional. it is pretty simple.

Well, if you don't like our rules here, you are welcome to go some where else.

THIS is a privately owned website and the owner can have any rules he wants.

I have been an ADMIN for many years and I can say that this is one of the most relaxed TRUCKING websites out there where rules are concerned.

INMYDREAMS we had a problem with snowman insulting a moderator and a few other members.

We will not tolerate that from anyone.

Also, it amaezes me when people complain about doing/being/participating or things along those lines when these things are voluntary..........

Like I told my ex-wife............HAHAHA...........when you're unhappy with something you can change .....than change it..............LMAO...........

Friends you can get rid of,........lovers, partners, even bosses you can get rid of so why keep complaining about it and do something instead of continuing to complain and try to make everyone else p----- off......
Just does'nt make any sense...........

Does anyone care about the 100 foot walk? I don't think so. I think it's the line that takes 15 minutes just to get to someone, who then walks away and gets to the guy who was waiting on the scale for 10 of those 15 minutes. Then, they take your card, make you come back in and do it all over again. Fueling shouldn't take more than 10 minutes, and only that long because of the bugs you accumulate on your windshield. I'm lucky to rarely have to go inside. The last time I went inside I felt like a real idiot. Swiped my card at the pump and it said to see cashier. So I go inside, wait a few minutes, get to someone and explain. I start to hand her the card when I realize it's my frequent fueler card and my 600 points at the pilot wouldn't purchase too much fuel, anyway. Ya, 80 hour weeks don't take a toll on ya...

Doc - I think you may have nailed it on that one. I see that Lucky is banned also now.
