Sad state of facilities

Thanks I shared this with some fellow drivers I know that are in bc

 

Right, what is normal, even when no crisis exists? I normally like to have a good inventory of back up supplies, to survive for a few days. Then supplement that with outside purchases when wanted. You soon find where the best value is, for maybe something that resembles home cooked at a good price.
Also can't agree more about current treatment received, influencing future patronage. I have a very long memory and will sacrifice convenience right now, to drive on by to where I left feeling good about my last stop.

 

If they don't want you in their businesses......simple......go home wait 2 weeks and most likely in that time,if they don't go bankrupt....they'll most likely change their minds and show a little courtesy toward you.

Go home. Be done with it.
