- LLLiz LuPiDec 16, 20255.0The last 2 times we have visit the Joplin store Kaytie has been our server and she has been nothing but amazing, attentive and respectful with us, other guests and coworkers. She's the example of great service.
- RRRDec 12, 20251.0Newly remodeled showers are tiny, have no ventilation and nowhere to put your bag or to sit to put your socks on. The floor of my shower was super sticky!? (Ew!) Everything about Pilot Fly J is CHEAP. They've become the KMart of the truckstops and that's actually not fair to KMart. Pilot ruins everything they touch. I can't imagine how bad they are to work for.
