    with USA's OLD fuel list i could almost do that there.
    we may not be so lucky after the first of the year. i heard rumor that we are switching to USX's policies. which means (i heard) routing exact routing AND fueling locations will be given with load assignment.:biggrin_25510:

    They keep cutting our list down and we'll be reduced to farting in the tank.
    I am pretty talented but i don't know if i can fart ULSD. Might have to go back to a 9400i

    Yeah they changed their shower credit policy last spring. You used to get 3 showers on one 150 gal purchase. Then they changed it to one shower credit for any fuel purchase of 50 gals or more but no more than one credit per transaction.

    I purposely fuel each day so as to earn a shower credit each day unfortunately this runs up my 70 hr clock a little quicker fueling 7 times per week rather than 3 times/wk.

    And yes I've run into the same problem not getting a shower credit any time I have to go inside. Oddly enough I get the points on my card for the purchase but no credit.

    Lately, Pilots are a grocery store that just happens to sell diesel. Guy fueling his Honda for $5 is more important than a trucker fueling 200 Galons.

    Screw them, just fueling at different places now
