Nope, note at alloff topic. Thats why I started this.
Are you really 10k into tolls this year do you run over sized?
I hate paying for parking. Just drives me retarded no pun intended. I've only done it twice in 5 years and both times I was ready to hit the man who disturbed me in the truck.
What "grinds my gears" is the 100 plus paid parking spots that are full. Thats 1800. Just right there one day a week. Then the nine dollar salads. The 3.00 dollar cokes. Yesterday was 7.95 for a side salad and a chicken sand Which.
I do bring lots of food with me. But its mostly water based. So as I get low on water I tend to buy food Untill I can hit wally to reup my supply.
I don't mind paying for showers because I'm setting not going to clean then.
Almost 4bucks at some t.as for a half gallon of water. Id rather spend that on there bread.
Time to be petty I guess.

Speaking of tolls. I paid 4.00 to get off the highway to deliver. Two blocks from the highway. Then 4.00 to get right back on. Oklahoma has the toll thing right. You pay upfront and get a refund at your exit.

Have fun trying to find a parking space later in the afternoon in CT. My company reimburses me no questions asked. I try not to if I don't have to but I don't sweat it. It's a spot where I know I'm going to be and saves drive time for the next day when I'm closer to my stop.
Showers are also free if you buy a days worth of fuel most places.
Food for me has been a constant flux. Always experimenting on different things to cook. I've mostly settled on steaks or pork chops since they're super easy and good eating. Cook some spaghetti in the microwave, maybe some steamed vegetables. It's really the life. The only problem is time management as I have to wash the dishes after, but at least I can do it I in my truck.
Where the hell are you finding food so cheap though? Are you surviving exclusively on roller dogs?Jarhed1964 and feldsforever Thank this. -
Ohio has pretty cheap food. Unlike IL. All there food os expensive here. On ct I try to sleep at the shipper/receiver. I slept at a plaza one time. I was woken up three different times before I learned to it to answer the soor when the curtain is closed.
