Swiping a card to pay at the pump? Crooks scam millions from drivers

and another thing.....if you are a company driver and DON'T pay for the gas you put in your truck....if your company is paying for the fuel....do the people behind the counter a BIG favor.....DON'T complain about the price of fuel, cause guess what, THEY DONT CARE, and YOU AREN'T PAYING FOR IT ANYWAYS. Besides, nothing anybody can do.....so why do it??? Just makes you look DUMB.

Oh, and another thing, if your card dont swipe outside, and you are asked to bring the card in to get the pump started......just do it and shut up. whining about having to walk an extra 50-100 feet wont hurt ya. You could probably use the extra walk. Besides, it is company (the truck stop) procedure, isnt the fault of the person behind the counter....so quit being so rude. BE PROFSSIONAL. If you're having a bad day, doesn't mean you have to ruin someone elses day.

 

Wow so what are drivers to do?
In your opinion we all should just be quite and say nothing about things that affect our lives
See you get to go home when your done, OTR drivers must live it 24-7 for weeks at a time

Truck drivers have no choice but to put up with crappy employees at truck stops
But you do, if you don't like us find other work!!!!

 

He is headed off to be trained to be a driver by Swift, no less. He will have other things to complain about other than fuel prices, and cards that don't swipe.

 

Hey snowman.............a little hostile or passionate about this huh..........?

Did you work work at a truckstop?

 

there, fixed it for ya.

yeah i did work at a truck stop, but what gets me, is that drivers think it is the fault of the employee at the truck stop that they have to walk inside. I was by far a crappy employee. I try to crack jokes, and be FUN when a driver comes in, some, they seem to notice and kinda relax. Others just have no sense of humor, and others you cannot make happy if you pumped their fuel for them, told them it was free, cleaned their windows and headlights for them AND then weighed the truck for them.

 

good points.

by the way, do you have your PM turned off? tried to message you about lewiston and got rejected ... but i am able to send PMs. anyway, good luck and hopefully i'll be there on the 28th or one of the following weeks.
