    No, sorry, if you re-read how you worded that, it sounds like you're saying that you crap out the window when you're at home. I shoulda been more clear.

    Well I am from Ohio. Our public infrastructure isn't always the best!
    All kidding aside I meant that I have a constant source of entertainment, heating & cooling, safety and food. Save for an actual toilet, my truck is very much like a house on wheels. One could almost call it a motor home.

    Then again, 5 gallon bucket with a trash bag, and who's gonna argue, eh?

    I've delivered pizza to trucks several times. Found the drivers to be good tippers. Got my present job driving a Kenworth delivering a pizza one night. The delivery was to a rough part of town, and the person that ordered it told them that I'd have to bring change for a
    $100.00, they told me to drop my cash stash, and carry a big flashlight! Got there and the fellow who ordered it was none other than 'Boss Hawg' a driver I'd worked with the previous year. He said, "What the ---- are you doing delivering pizza for?" Gave me some deets, and, the rest as they say is history!

    My daddy always told me not to eat and poop in the same place. I'd climb up in the trailer with a Wal Mart sack before using a bucket next to my bed.

    To Each his own I suppose.

    I have, Just straight up tell the pizza joint, The nearest address ( cross intersection )and you are in a tractor trailer. I've done it numerous times waiting out the 30 minutes, pre-order 20 minutes in advance. ( it also helps knowing the manager of pizza place and doing on the job work in my hometown )

    Told others ( otr / Ltl drivers ) they will deliver with zero issues, a bunch of scareddy cats... Tip 5 bucks and enjoy repeat service.


    Same thing with Chinese Delivery, Give them a address and they show up, Keep a look out. Don't mention if at a truck stop if some of you have problems with delivery.

    I used to deliver pizza from a corporate Papa Johns near the Dallas area. It is against the official policy their to deliver to vehicles but when it was late at night when just me and the manager were left working then I would usually take the order.

    Sadly I rarely got much of a tip.

    Sitting parked on the side of the road, unloading at a residence, ordered Pizza Hut, they came right to me, delivery guy said it was the most unique delivery request ever. Tipped him well.
