Default More on "Professionalism"

Why oh why do drivers park along fences and next to pumps in no parking zones when there are ample open parking spots? Yesterday I pulled into the Love's in Lamar, Colorado. If you have been there you know it is VERY TIGHT to get turned into the pumps. There were no trucks at the East end where there is some parking. Pulled up alongside the fence behind the pumps, making it totally impossible to get into the fuel island is a truck with the driver polishing his rims.

I politely asked if he would mind moving over to the parking area so I could get into the fuel island and he starting dropping the "F Bomb" cursing me out like I had somehow insulted him. Luckily I had enough fuel and went on down the road to fuel elsewhere.

Unfortunately I see this everywhere, truckers that are too lazy to walk 50 to 100 more feet from a legal parking spot and park in the way of others, with total disrespect for anyone else!

That would have been the point were I took a crap in a zip lock baggie, pee'd in it also, mixed it up and as he was doing the other side of the truck tossed the open bag into the cab.
