The dude next to me left. Next to him is Werner.

Leaning up against Werner's steps are two giant bags of garbage. Was this like," Well July is over might as well do the monthly clean out? "

When the idiot in the Tesla hit me last year, the wrecker driver backed my truck and loaded trailer into a spot at the Denver yard, dropped the trailer, then put my truck in another spot. Didn't even do a pullup. I felt like a little kid watching John Wayne do something magnificent.

Kind of funny story, maybe it will save any of you from making same mistake. Or maybe y'all are smart enough to realize this would happen:

So I pull into TS in the middle of the night. It's slammed full, but there is one broken pump with a cone out. It's been a long day of driving, I'm tired and really hadn't thought about things. So I decide to back the trick up to the broken pump and park there for the night. I figure by backing in to it, I can quickly exit the same way I came in. Then I go grab a shower. When I come back the TS is pretty busy and it's a zoo. The trucks that frequent the place are going in the correct direction (opposite of me, since I backed up to the entrance) but a bunch of OTR guys are coming in from the wrong side, because they saw my truck appearing to be exiting the pumps. It didn't even occur to me that by parking that way, anyone unfamiliar would pull around and enter the pumps backwards.

Kind of funny story. No one cussed me or anything but I kind of felt like a ####### for causing the confusion.

Edit: To clarify, the parking was slammed full. The pumps, when I parked, were empty.

Tro. Tro. Davetro.

No buffet. Meals indigenous to the working man. All home made style. No rubbish from Sysco,etc.

Can we get a good barber shop and laundry facility at the davetro? Maybe a room to spend the night. Works the same as shower credits. Except instead of renting a shower u rent a room. How awesome would that be?
