    so you are saying that you will block a fuel pump,back crookedly,etc. when it is convienient for you? that's right,no need to ever inconveience yourself.never mind that a driver will pull in to fuel 2 minutes after you don't pulll your truck out or that taking the extra time to back properly will allow perhaps 2 more driver to park for the night.

    your post reads that if you have to go out of your way,you will not.you may not intentionally do anything disrespecful or discourteous yet you are oblivious to what actually is disrespectful and uncourteous especially if you are required to put forth extra effort.

    you epitomize the new breed, unfortunately,and it is all about you out here.please never do anything to work with another driver especially if you have to inconvenience yourself and I will be sure to never offer my tools,my eyes,experience,jumper cables,air lines,physical help,etc. and you can ##### sit where you are down or unable to slide or whatever.

    That's the drivers business. If you don't like it, drive to another truckstop.

    Sesame Street is on, and is requesting your presence, sir. Don't forget to say hi to Elmo when he comes on. Have a blessed day.

    So....
    I live in a apt complex. Some days with what I consider a nice breeze, I open my windows. Should i be furious that my neighbors choose to run their AC? Because I can hear them run. I can also hear the kids play outside. I guess those ppl are just rude and don't care right?

    Before I Left the so called wonderful world of Trucking, I would pull up to a customer, park OUT OF THE WAY, so drivers ahead of me can back in or pull out. Then things CHANGED, I would now days see drivers pull up and BLOCK EVERY ONE, so they DONT have to walk far, and go inside and find out what door to back into. Back in OUR DAY, you would rarely see that happen.
