    I'd pee in the bosses car's tank! I have had few places that do the same thing ( drivers not allowed to use restrooms ) You can't argue with them as it is no win situation. Keep your empty bottles in case of an emergency.

    Don't know about you folks but When I gotta be somewhere on time I get there. Load first bathroom last. Did anybody see my comment before? I been on the road for 27 years and never, NEVER had a place tell me I can't use the restroom. And we aint talkin bout number 1, I can do that without stopping.

    And to the person who recommended I bobtail back to a friendly restroom, Well son, I did try that and you must never been to this place cuz aint a place to park a truck 10 miles of that place. the closest big parking lot has got potholes so big it probably swallow up a four wheeler. :biggrin_25510:

    Well young buck, you aint telling me nothing I don't know, I had more than one of those when I was a long hauler. but i aint even got a sleeper since i lost my truck bout 5 years back. My point is WE provide these places with vital service. The least they could do it provide us a place to use the restroom. If we don't complain or try to change things You younger folk are gonna have it a lot harder than I have.

    Like an earlier poster said, usually there is a reason for everything.

    Probably some slob or slobs messed up their bathroom real bad, so they made it off limits.

    It's usually one or two slobs that ruin it for everyone.
