    Nah. I'm way too low-maintenance for that. We just don't have that much cross-country freight anymore.

    Got up 0300 this morning after 34 was up and thankfully I wasn’t blocked in. Fuel island was full of 30 min breakers though and I was there 30 min for a 10 min affair. Wish they would take that 30 min break away. Pulled into the J in Amarillo and watched a haji get screamed at by maintenance guy to get out from in front of the fuel island. Just sat there and ignored the guy with a smile on his face….bet if tow trucks were standing by the problem would be solved. Oh, well guess it is the new norm we gotta keep putting up with

    These facilities need to start contracting tow trucks to be on standy for this garbage…maybe when fools have to pay $1000 to get their truck back and such or at the least have to pay a $500drop fee then maybe some will
    Get the hint.

    I agree 110% that towing companies need to be on standby. Also, they need to fines on people dumping trash in other bottles. I’m surprised the local Walmart where I am right by and Vieira has not had a tow truck on standby.

    Just like they do at Little America. Move it or they hook it.
