    And other people come in turning it on with their dirty hand hands, then turn it off with those same hands.
    It is actually the same grossness.

    Get over it, because you do the exact same thing.

    Oh, I know. By that I meant that if your religious beliefs require you to cleanse your outer body before prayer, there are a lot cleaner places to do it than some of these places who's motto isn't ''cleanlieness is next to godlyness" it's more like "cleanliness is next to impossible"...

    I am over it. I have a toilet, sink and shower in my own #### truck. Can't stand pigs.

    Hands, face and feet. The extremities.
    We should be thankful that there are not other (more centralized) parts that need to be cleaned as well.

    It must be nice having all that in your truck.
    And I doubt pigs wash their feet in a sink.

    But I have seen it done many times. Usually they are respectful enough to wipe the area down when they are finished washing.
    Much unlike many 'civilized' truckers that simply trash the place.

    Some drivers were raised right...every now and then when I am washing my hands after doing my business, one of the truckstop staff will be in there cleaning the place and watch in amazement when they see me take a piece of paper towel and wipe up my over splashes...some will even thank me for cleaning up after myself. But I still feel the brain jarring dope smack my momma use to give us if we didn't, so it's a habit. Too bad more drivers aren't like that.

    If they need to cleanse there feet why can’t they do it in the privacy of there own bathroom stall, that toilet water when flushed comes from the same place the sink water comes from?

    Problem solved!

    is someone washing their dirty feet really any worse than someone else washing the poop off their hands?

    I've never seen anyone washing their feet but I'd like to think I wouldn't give a darn.

    But as a former farmer and manure relocation engineer I've done things that would make most of you fall over

    The past decade I've driven all over Texas. Not once in that time have I come across a dude washing his feet in the sink.

    Where the hell are y'all running that this is a common occurrence? lol
