I mean, I like the idea they like to keep that area set up for drivers, but the attitude with which they approached me was horrible. I have no problems showing you my CDL - if you *ask* for it before throwing me out...

When I drove, I dressed in casual T-shirts and baggy khaki pants that I always have worn and still do and didn't ever look like a stereotypical "truck driver" (looked more like a slacker college student, lol) but I never got hassled in "driver only" seating sections. :?

Unless I miss my bet, it was because tndieselgrl is a woman. Lots of people have a hard time believing that any woman would want to be a truck driver.

There goes my favorite t/s chain down the tubes

Could have been worse they could the PILOT that took over the Petro instead of the TA.

Just imagine the size of the Subway and Wendy's Pilot could've put in the place of the restaurants :wink:
