    So i guess your the only human that is 100% GERM free.
    Or you have Amazing eye sight, so you can see that there are no germ down there or on your hands. Or on the handle of the restroom door.
    Point is, from the very first day of potty training MOST parents teach their childern to was thier hands after going to the bathroom.

    If i see that peron standing in line, i will make the comment loud enough to be heard, It's amazing how many people come out of the bathroom with out washing thier hands. Pretty funny to see some jump out of line and vanish.

    While I agree with you, it's been shown, on Discovery Health, that even AFTER washing your hands by the time you actually sit down to eat, your hands have just about the SAME amount of germs as they did BEFORE leaving the bathroom!! Just something to think about LOL

    I have yet to become a driver yet but that sounds like a bunch of bs that truckers should not have to deal with...What ever happened to "camaraderie" ?

    Can't you just start laying into your air horn until the inconsiderate drivers moves ?

    Doesn't do much good to honk at a truck with no driver in it..........

    I say just top off their fuel tanks with water, they'll learn.

    Then you are sinking to the level of the jackwagon who parked and blocked in the first place. If this is seriously your mindset then you are part of the problem; not the solution.

    I just go inside and have the fuel island page whomever is blocking the island.

    Some of them REALLY get into it too. You'll see drivers heading out to the truck FAST too.

    Had one out in Salt Lake, She announced that the truck was blocking the island and that it was being hooked up to a wrecker.

    Never saw a driver move so quickly.
