    That's my point. Lack of enforcement on the part of the truckstops is the problem.

    I finally got a preplan yesterday, after I asked for one. Pick up this afternoon in Prarie Du Chien going to Piqua, OH for ASAP. Then this morning I got another preplan that picks up tomorrow (Home Depot out of Monroe, OH) going to Columbia MO for Tuesday before 1700. Will put me just under 2500 for the week.

    In all the years since this paid parking epidemic has started (by the parking spot), I have only worked for a couple that paid the driver back. And one went to "with authorization" and the other went to ''with authorization" until they were merged into the evil E.W. Wylie, so I don't know if they still authorize it, but the percentage of companies that still do has got to be pretty low.

    The TA in North Bend Washington enforces it. Starting around 1500 they someone riding around on a golf cart checking everyone that parks. That’s entire job. If you park he comes to your truck to make sure you have a reservation

    So I saw yesterday night 3 Crete trucks parked up my way. Probably getting loads of paper out of Sappi in Skowhegan. The papermill which once had Pottles dealing with their plants yard and etc. But looks like Bison buying them cause Schneider to jump in and grab it.
