    The trainer crapped his pants so parked to run inside.

    I did this a few times at some truck stops with a very weird design at 4:00 AM, because was easy to stop at the pump in opposite direction , wash my windshield and exit, than make 1 circle, enter the pumps, make another circle and exit, but there were no trucks at that time.

    I fueled once and the right side pump wasn't working. Fortunately it wasn't crowded and I was able to leave the pump on, do a U turn and fill that side. Just had the guy beside me make sure another truck didn't pull in while I did it. No one took my picture though.

    I had to do that once. I was doing both #1 and #2 and the satellite pump was not working for one of them.

    No. My carrier has less than 10 drivers. I have come in the wrong way a couple of times. It happened my first time to a couple of trucks stop and I could not tell which way was the correct way.

    It has nothing to do with not caring.
