    I've seen that before. Thankfully I don't live next to such people, so I have no need for one. :)

    I'm parked at the lovely TA Baltimore South... 2.5 miles from my delivery in the morning.

    Got a free shower by looking dumb (not hard to do) when I realized the ticket machines system was down. (I don't even have a card since we don't fuel here) I asked the lady cleaning the showers what to do and she just gave me the next open one. Gave her a nice tip....

    Now time for breakfast... For dinner...

    Then I'll go watch the 'parking wars' in the lot....

    I usually ask another driver if he has an extra. That's how I found out the kiosk system was down. I admittedly probably have the card somewhere.... I got one from every chain when I first started. I took them out of my wallet after a while. I had the TA/petro, loves, ambest..... We mostly use Pilot/Flying Js plus we can use Road Rangers and Sapp Bros too

    Then did a really good job on that oil change...

    Before the oil change. ^

    Anyways, parked outside the mall in Baton Rouge, la. Awaiting closing time so I can back this truck into where it's supposed to go. Gotta blindside around a corner, but unless the parking lot is clear, it isn't possible to do with a 53 foot trailer.

    Purple pin is the dock, if it had another 15 feet in width I could do a u-turn inside it and park. It's about 60 feet across with a brick wall on every side but the entrance.

    Gotta say, if nothing else this account is good for learning clock management and backing skills.
