    If I leave my truck and trailer under a rack, unless I'm on the catwalk, I'm out of a job.

    I've seriously thought about installing a 5 gallon tank underneath and hooking up a high pressure pump with spray nozzles. Then when one of those douchebags that empty their piss jug out, splashing it on my truck, I'll position the nozzle toward their driver's window and fire away.

    Another reason why I like to nose in whenever possible at the truckstops.

    Nah it's completely reasonable. I will usually park under the rack so I'm closer to the office, and then don't have to walk so far to warm up my subway and take my shower.

    According to another thread i just read about flat tires, brokers, and cross town moves....

    You were dead wrong. He was there first. He should have whooped you butt.

    Seriously, some days im on here and i read a story and not one other person agrees with the OP and then i have these mixed emotions because i felt a different way. So im going to be that guy here...

    How long was that exactly? I've pulled in to load and have had to run in and do a personal unload of the two cups of coffee I had earlier. Couple/few minutes shouldn't be an issue. A different story if the driver was personally unloading a Subway sandwich for ten minutes. Then he/she should have pulled off to the side.

    While we're here. I was always courteous when I saw another driver waiting to pull forward to clear the rack after loading, and then peel out of my rubber suit and boots.
