Pilot/Flying J now require 9 coffee purchases to get 1 free .

Yeah, everybody's already squashed into those places like sardines and they just keep coming back. Down with Pee-Lot!!!! I hate those places.....

 

I can remember four score and seven years ago when you handed the waitress your thermos and she filled it for free!!!

 

The judicial system calls that theft, so be careful.

 

Going to get worse COFFEE going up in price eveyplace and the J has to watch the $ , if you all recall they went BROKE before and PILOT came to the rescue..

 

I have read company drivers fuel up were they are told. Are there more O/O then company drivers.

 

Looks like I'll be drinking more tea with my own tea bags. I agree that purchasing $600-800 of fuel at one fueling should allow someone to get a cup of coffee. Hate fueling at Pilot/J but I get the best discounts as an O/O.

 

though i agree with you, its still stealing

and if you get caught, you will be locked up for shop lifting, even though "its only a coffee"

 

Not always. Sometimes you get to work for human beings who tell you to try to find the best price in route and within reason.

 

now THATS a dying breed

 

yup they're still around my boss is like that with we can fuel up anywhere as long as its cheaper then pilot or flying j. i do all my own routing and never get questioned i keep toll roads to minumium as i hate time stamps. but if i gotta make an appt i will run the toll roads. i love my company every time i go to the shop i deal with the owner directly one of the nicest guys i've ever met.

we have 37 trucks and if i say so myself we have some of the nicest, well maintained, and fastest truck on the road and i dont see that changing anytime soon

i once asked about fuel economy and he just told me "if I wanted over 6 miles per gallon average you guys would be driving ugly trucks but i like looking good so you guys drive 379's" that was enough for me
