    Lazy lardfaces that don't want to be bothered with doing the right thing. This are the same kind of people that instead of doing a pull through in the back of the lot and avoiding any potential backing hassles would rather back into THAT last spot at the front, even though it's tight as hell and there's a wide load parked next to it, even if they have to blind side back. You know this people, they would rather spend 20 minutes backing in to be close to the chicken wing buffet that simply walking a little bit more.

    They also tend to use gigantic headsets and carry 64 oz buckets of mountain dew.

    BETTER IDEA. These idiots that park on the fuel island, get infront of them and back in, THEN have someone else pull in behind and box them in. Then, make them wait while you go inside. Your welcome.

    It's funny!! I mean I've been a member here since 03-2008 and not one time, ONE SINGLE TIME, have I EVER seen someone say "Yea I have fueled and gone inside or fueled and used the restroom then grabbed something from whatever fast food establishment is there!!

    Every single one of yall fuels and the parks lol

    Ill admit, I have fueled and blocked the pump a time or two, it was a ghost town, UNTIL I walked in and then BAM; every truck pulled in!!!! haha

    I've been to plenty Pilot and Flying J truck stops that have employees talk on the big speaker once they've seen drivers at the pumps too long. They say "Please pull up after fueling and be courteous to your fellow drivers".

    they are too fat and lazy to pull forward, because they don't want to walk an extra 75 feet to the drivers entrance.
    Im to the point where I will call the fuel desk and ask them to page the driver to move their truck.
    If that doesn't work, for most part on company trucks, there is a phone # on the back of the trailer.

    The real truth is a lot of guys are taking there mandontory 30 min break at the pumps. I have knocked on doors asking drivers to move forward.
