I parked my truck in a paid parking lot, and when I tried to renew the parking for an additional day, they told me there was no space 😟
I told them that my truck was still there, so how could there be no space?
They were rude and uncooperative

There was a man cleaning the shower who tried to harass me and used foul language. When I spoke up, two women and a man who were present sided with him instead of acting professionally. If you are not satisfied with your job, then leave it—do not try to harass people while claiming you are cleaning the shower.

It is unacceptable the amount of time these “employees of the month” take to get the showers ready. I am not joking when I tell you it took 3.5 hours for a shower to become available. I had to leave without taking a shower. I tried to speak to a lady at the front and all she said was “we’re working on it”. Seriously, why? Don’t these people understand that we run on clocks? I believe Pilot and Flying J need to start evaluating their hiring practices a little better. Pay attention to your reviews and FIX whatever you need to fix.
