    i've ben trying to get my printer to connect to my phone. it connects but no print. same with thelaptop. it connects but no print.

    i still have to climb back in the sleeper and turn the printer on and the wifi on. so it might just be a lost cause. stick with the usb cable till i get a newer printer.

    i've got all day to kill so maybe i play around with that idea. after a shower and walmart haircut.

    You know what I wish there was more of... Availability to take a wiz!!! I'm not exactly bashful, so stopping and standing between the truck and trailer isn't a BIG deal, (but im a guy, I feel sorry for the ladies) but there are laws for urinating in public. I don't stop often, but when I do I KNOW the first thing I gotta do is find a bathroom. And in a busy truckstop when your 2 and 3 deep at the island and the urge hits in the first 10 gallons of a 200 gallon fill up...
    Or how about when your in a dock, an 1/8th mile from the warehouse entrance... or in line to get through the gate at the miniature guard shack with trucks out in front waiting to get through... Just what are we expected to do? Wet ourselves while were waiting?

    I would like to see more restrooms closer to the trucks.
    I saw it somewhere else in this thread "wish in one hand and #### in the other, see which one fills up first."

    power washing by myself (no soap)

    to rinse off road dirt, snow, bugs, etc

    a truck stop that actually sells truck parts, accessories, hard to find parts should not be so hard to find

    (those connecting plastics for the air lines)
