    I was fueling at a Loves the other day and watched as a guy was eating a sandwich in the island. Placed was packed. Around noon. Plenty of parking, but 3 deep in the islands. After I started fueling, I walked over and asked, are you getting fuel. He said no. I said you should go park and let someone who needs to fuel in. He told me to * off and to mind my own F business.

    That’s the main problem out here. No one seems to care about anyone else but themselves.

    You should have told the manager. He wouldn't have been so high and mighty with him.

    The truck stop management can do some serious enforcement if they wanted to with somebody who gave them attitude. They can see if the last fuel transaction matches that truck or they can see if that company and truck number has a transaction history elsewhere. They can suspend rewards card for the driver with the attitude, contact the company and put them on notice, suspend their ability to fuel. They just have to want to get serious about the problem. Elogs is the main reason for this crap but rude drivers is ultimately the problem. I’m on elogs like everybody else but I don’t pull that crap.
