    I also had two charter buses pull in to a Love's and they were full of teenagers, so naturally the hallway leading back to the bathroom was jam packed. Had to turn and walk sideways a few times to get past all the teenage girls standing in line.

    Luckily with some TAs and FlyingJs they all head to one set of bathrooms and don't know about the other one inside the professional driver's area. *whew*

    ..and yes I'm trying to get the thread back on subject ya darn hijackers!

    Tired of plain pickup, not towing even
    using the truck spaces at rest areas
    . If we should be ticketed for parking
    On the car side, they need to be ticked
    As well. And I see bobtails in the rv
    Lot. They are not using full size
    Spots, so those with trailers can.

    Reading his other posts it seems like he is a natural at this. He will open his smart mouth to the wrong person one day and will show up here with a totally different attitude.

    Dont waste your time with this person he has been driving for 15 minutes and knows everything. And everybody he comes across is stupid or lazy or whatever.

    Regarding RVs in the parking lot.
    Some don't realize that many of these RVs are in transit for delivery to the dealers.
    Don't be so fast to decide they are campers looking for free parking.

    While I have no problem reporting bad parking that takes up more than one spot weather it be RV or semi I do find you acting childish in making false break down reports, not only does it wate the towing company's time it is figured into there Prices affecting roadside service and that affects my bottom line. Plus it has waking up the Driver of the vehicle and possible other drivers on either side of him who all have schedules to keep and now run the risk of driving fatigued Just so you could have a good Laugh GROW UP :biggrin_25513:
