    Man towels in showers who cares if he’s in the truck by himself. He’s a Trolley

    I stopped using flipflops my first week and I haven't had a problem in a year. Though if I'm not at a big chain I might use them. They clean them well enough it seems.

    I made a mistake I'm at a Pilot. I know everyone who makes mistakes are liars.

    You got me man parking lot lights are strange to you for some odd reason.

    See that bright object it's called a light. Just snapped this picture from the driver's seat. IMG_20171231_192158921.jpg

    If you are in the showers at peak time and every trucker has the hot water on full blast, won't too long before every shower is spewing out cold water. Shower I had around midnight last night was hella pressure and HOT. Stepped outside with my fresh shave and my face shrunk up three sizes in the cold.

    Two days ago for me and it was fluctuating between warm with a sudden 1000° blast then cold and back to warm. It sucked. Greencastle, PA TA. I seem to find myself there a lot these days.

    My shower today dropped pressure for a second when someone flushed the toilet but never changed temp. Most showers should have thermostatic mixing valves that prevent extreme temp changes.[/QUOTE]
