    What is the point in the constant insults @BM 58 I get it, you and probably some others don't understand @supersnackbar approach to the daily grind of trucking, but he never responds to your jabs, which actually says quite a bit about his personality in my opinion. If Crete doesn't like it, I'm sure they'll bring it up, but the guy does the job he's hired to do and really at the end of the day this isn't a personality contest out here, it's a job which at times sucks, and obviously some of us have different ways of venting.

    Thought I'd add this too, my previous comment by no means was posted to cause and argument, and not trying to side either way, but as a follower of this thread it does get old at times, especially when he doesn't even entertain the reaction you guys are trying to get. Just my 2 cents.....which isn't worth much :)

    I was coming down the I69 in Michigan into Indiana yesterday morning. The wind and rain was so bad the night before I decided to stop in a rest area and try again in the daylight. The rain lasted pretty much all night but was gone in the morning. Not so with the wind. It was bad all the way to #### near Indianapolis.

    I delivered then parked at the Love's in Sikeston the night of the storms. Came down i55 south toward Memphis next morning. There must've been close to a dozen trucks blown over in Missouri alone. When I left my receiver, I JUST got parked when the storm roared through. It went through in 2 stages, about 30m apart.. 2nd stage wasn't near as bad as the first.. I'm surprised and glad Sikeston didn't get slammed harder while I was there.

    He just hasn't gotten it yet...I don't respond, because I don't see it. Yes, it's venting, but I also throw in some positive, and some humor. My threads about my current company are more or less a blog since I have a face meant for the printed word(when I was little, I always wondered why mom made me wear that porkchop necklace before I went outside to play-with the dog), so a Youtube vlog would be more of a Rockey Horror Picture Show....like I have posted numerous times, I say what I am thinking, and don't sugar coat anything (unless it's the only way to get the point across without violating a forum policy or triggering the profanity filter). If people don't like what I have to say, they are free to ignore me or find someone else's thread that suits their fancy...I'll be here saying what I say regardless.

    The way I see it, if someone doesn't like what, or the way SSB says something, don't follow this thread.

    Seems pretty simple to me......

    I use the app to fuel just for that reason, so many pinpads are junk. Most places using my phone works well

    Plus I am pretty sure High Command knows who I am...I mean, as a Crete driver years ago, they called me in to have a pow-wow over my Crete thread with 2 vp's and the Lincoln fleet manager (who bought me lunch afterwards because I didn't bite my tongue and said what I needed to say without being intimidated, and told me that he was pretty sure nobody ever spoke to them like that to their face)...so, if they want to do it again, I know how to get there. And the way to change what I say is to change the things that are causing issues.

    I’m not on here to insult him in any way. But it seems that he has more problems in the daily grind of trucking than most others do. If that offends other snowflakes that follow this I will cease. Just hate to see someone this miserable on a daily basis. Hope he can find peace before his head explodes or he gets fired.

    I do too, but at pilot you still need to type that code in, and that wasn’t working. Lady in the store said someone beat the hell out of the machine with a bat last night lol. Vegas peelot
