When I first checked in for a shower on the app there were 11 guests in line and honestly my first thought was someone is not keeping up with cleaning them. I was wrong. slowly and steadily the number went down till it was my turn. Thanks to the cleaning staff for doing what you do.

I have been a Flying J member for over two years. Every station I’ve been to, the employees always welcome me with a beautiful smile, even if I don’t get fuel. But at this station, a guy named Ray didn’t allow me to park or go into the store because he didn’t see us get fuel there. I asked him, “Why don’t you allow us to park here?” He said, “Just leave. You’re not welcome here, and I will cancel your account.” What??

I paid for reserved parking spot when I got here, They were all filled , so I had to go inside and tell the manager. So the maintenance guy Josh helped me find what trucks didn't belong so I could pull in and get some sleep after 780 miles of driving. I they really need security on this lot. I really
Appreciated his hel I hope the management knows how valuable a employee they have.
