    Hell I like that place better than the other buildings. No hassle, unloaded and reloaded in 1.5 hours. Fork yeah.

    Ugh come here to 300 central avenue and the lady at the desk is coughing up a lung. None of her coworker seem to care. So hopefully that’s a good sign.

    Delivered today at 1430 load scheduled for 2000 clock runs out at 1900. So I’m not expecting anything good out of this.

    Don't do it unless you aren't concerned about a log violation.. I declined a load the other day for the exact same reason.

    amidst all this doom and gloom and panic shopping, I make a Walmart run today, and they had everything that I needed.

    of course if I'd needed toilet paper that would have been an entirely different matter.

    I haven't had any troubles stocking up while I'm home either. Has anyone noticed any closures or shortages st truck stops or rest stops?

    Only thing I have noticed is that Pennsylvania has closed all their rest areas and gone so far as to block even parking. I do not see what preventing parking is going to do towards this health cause. MAYBE the building but those rest areas certainly aren't the center of social interactions inside the building or out.

    I read that they had a lot of complaints and were going to reopen them to truck parking only but as of a few days ago they still hadn't.

    I was somewhere recently that was out of whole milk, but that's not too I usual to see even when we are not in the midst of a pandemic.

    When all of this starts getting serious, I stayed at the A&A Truck Stop on US35 in Jackson, OH and it was closed except for parking and the fuel desk. Not sure if it's changed since then. Last truck stop I remember seeing the dining area open in was 5 or 6 days ago at the North 40 in Tennessee. I guess all of the Denny's in the Flying J's are completely closed, as well.

    Pennsylvania just seems to like to use any excuse they can to make truck drivers' lives unnecessarily difficult.
