    Yeah, they are nice folks there. If I remember, the showers were on one side of the shipping office, and the bathrooms were on the other side. And it is really nice that they actually built a big enough lot where you have room to manuever.

    Have to admit - I'm happy if they let you use a restroom !!!

    Yeah- I've heard nothing but horror stories about how shippers and receivers treat drivers. It's good to hear that not all of them are "evil."

    Too bad, I used to pick up there all the time when I worked for another company. Used the showers, and cafeteria too. Some of the nicest people I've dealt with. Reckon they had too many instances of drivers really messing things up.

    That's the bad thing, shippers or who ever, try to make things a bit nicer for the drivers who come to their facility and because of a few the convenience has to be taken away. The showers, restrooms and grounds arent respected so everyone else has to suffer. Doesn't it make you wonder what the inside of the tractor looks like or their homes? :biggrin_25511:
