    Here's one I hadn't witnessed before:

    Pilot, I-75 in Valdosta, GA, last week...Tuesday, I believe.

    Just about 5:30PM, I pull in to park for the night. The second and third fuel islands (counting from the building out) are blocked with trash cans because they are being pressure washed.

    Empty flatbed pulls up (not a major company). I recognize him because he just pulled OUT of a spot opposite of where I parked. He gets out...his dog yapping after him...and he goes in and showers...but only after parking square between the two barrels blocking the two islands!

    Needless to say, by the time he got out, one of the islands was open again. He gets back in, and returns to the back row of the truckstop. :biggrin_25510:

    I thought I had seen it all.

    One of MY pet peaves at the fuel isle is when someone pulls in and starts barking orders on the CB trying to get ahead of people who have been there for awhile when they don't know what the ##### is going on and there is a reason that people are just sitting there. A little patience at the fuel pumps goes a long way and might save your job.
