    Went back to Walmart. Nope no empties. Just as I thought. Got a funny message from dispatch "ask receiver if they will unload a trailer for you"

    i replied "it's Walmart. What do you think the answer to that is?"

    reply "ok. Looking for an mt"

    I'm at the Petro in N. Little Rock and I think this place has more reserved spaces than all the other PeTrA's combined! And was the guy hired to repaint the lines drunk?

    Geeze.

    Those reserved spots are growing. I have yet to have to pay for one but you need to stop earlier than you used to for a free spot. Hammond La used to have one row back by the shop. Now its that plus one whole row from the main building to the fuel pumps. Getting close to 20% of the lot.

    I've noticed the stops that fill up the fastest have the most reserved spots.
