    I was cruising around a J at 0200 this morning looking for a spot, and I saw 2 trucks parked crooked so they were in 2 spots, and an oversize blocking 3 spots who could have fit in 2. Not one of those trucks was from a mega carrier like Werner or Swift.

    It happens, and it's frustrating when a driver is tired and just wants to sleep. I had to wait for another trucker to leave, and grab his spot quick before any of the other circling vultures got to it.

    You must quit for the day around noon to be able to be so selective in choosing parking spots .

    He probably pulled in the lot at 8AM. It was the best he could do!

    It's a perspective thing. He's actually parked straight, the two other rigs are crooked. I'm sure he'll agree if you ask him..:biggrin_25523:
     
    KnuckleBuster and Red Hot Mess Thank this.
