    Well from what I read on this sight, he may not even be able to find a real truckstop that actually has a coffee counter in his area anymore to interact with drivers.
    Also from what I read on this site, there is a percentage of drivers that just use a truckstop for showers, fuel and a place to park, opting to sit, eat and watch tv or play games to keep from interacting with drivers, so that percentage has no valid input anyway.

    Truckstops could serve healthier food, but it sounds like they are going the other way, due to not enough drivers wanting to sit down and eat a real meal anymore.

    Please forgive my grammer. Last night, as well as today, I am at my second job. This forum lacks spell checker and I was writing quickly and frustrated. I had posted on other trucker forums, and became frustrated due to several people flagging them as spam, and then defending myself on how I don't need people to mock me for just trying to my homework.

    As for the assurance that I people will be truckers. I can't I don't have that assurance. That is one of the challenges of this assignment. However,, I have spent the last four years working in a travel stop serving drivers. On an average day I interact with 300 drivers, That is 300 chances to observe their buying habits, talk about their lifestyle. I have also read several different studies on truckers and have added some questions that are simiar are found on other surveys as a sorta of control measure to compare to other studies. dditionally only one person per broweser and per ip address can tak the survey.

    I tried your suggestion already. Due to be employed by a travel stop, the other truck stops are afraid that I am doing some type of market research on their guest. My company won't allow me because they are afraid that the survey will reflect on the company.

    Like why are ya hating on me for asking for help. This is the largest trucker forum out there.

     
    TripleSix Thanks this.

    @chipwilson...You said that you were looking for 15 people to answer your questions. How many do you have now?

    If this is about me;. I am 36 years old, a single father who has worked since he was nine years old. I own my own home. Rebuilt it with my own hands from the ground up. Plumbing included. I didn't wire the electric, someone else did.

    Also if you read the survey it doesn't say what you are doing wrong. Doesn't say what anyone is doing wrong. Why are you so angry at someone who is just trying to do their assignent? If ou don't want to do it, don't do it. WHy ya gotta complain and throw shade on someone you never met? That's disrespectful. That's not basic human deciency man. I'm gonna pray for you, because you have some issues.
