    And you guys wonder why... This is at the Van Wert, Ohio location... With the amount of room here you've got to be the ultimate steering wheel holder to hit that pole... Shopping cart full of empty DEF containers... 20191123_143441.jpg 20191123_142456.jpg

    I don't blame them.... I was in two Love's past 2 days... they have those big garbage containers hammered into the ground, what, every 20 feet or so?? YET garbage thrown on the ground....and a employee out there cleaning the lot.... shameful.

    i got to my local walmart nearly on a daily basis.

    it's usually for a couple of things, for other people in my life.

    ok, so i also stop at the Micky D's for my cup of coffee.

    many times, there is a big rig, parked across several parking spots, in effect, making them useless to cars...

    now frankly, i do not know if by say 9 AM, he is gone, but he IS there at 7 AM when i get there.

    i will snap a pic or 2 the next time, if i remember to take my camera.

    but one more thing....I HAVE Seen the trash containers over flowing with not only trash, but appliance boxes, car baby seat boxes, and other types of product boxes, and seriously, they cannot be for parking truckers......

    There are a lot, and I emphasize, a lot of really bad me first drivers on the road. I go buy that Van Wert Walmart all the time, lots of trucks. I usually stay at the Arby's just south of that (If I over night it's usually after 9PM when I park). So many drivers that don't have morals, hygiene, pride, and they 100% don't want to be truck drivers. They are here only because they have to be. This industry will hire anyone who can pass a drug test and insurance will insure. I'll type it nicely, I really dislike most drivers. And, that is unfortunate. Mind you it doesn't matter who files up trash cans or what the general public does. Don't be lazy and find another trash can, be a professional. Be a good person.
