    True, I grabbed my trash bag last night, walked around and didn’t see a trash can. I saw all the trash everywhere, could’ve added to it. But I didn’t , I took my trash back to my truck and waited until I found one.

    I have to say Schmidt, you hit the nail on the head when describing the people who only care about themselves and are too lazy to dump their trash in one of those thingys...I think they call them a trash can or heck even a dumpster. That is the one thing that irritates me the most about some people. No respect for the property they are trashing and no respect for the people that end up cleaning up after their lazy beepedy beep beeps. Great video and good for you for speaking up. Stay safe out there.

    As a guy who has worked at two trucking "centers," it's no fun cleaning that mess up, because the manager/s never buy the equipment to pick it up with. One time I foolishly asked why don't we place dumpsters every 100 feet on the edges of the lot and one said, "Because they just throw the trash AT the dumpster, not in it!" Couldn't help but laugh, because it sounded exactly like he had tried it long ago. 💕🤪

    "You are worthless and I cannot wait until your gene pool gets completely wiped off of this planet." has to be one of the best things I've heard all year. Was it brutal? Yes. Did it need to be said? Absolutely. Sadly it applies to more people than just truck drivers.

    Ì watched a certain driver throw all his trash out into parking lot, then walk by 10 trash cans at the fuel island to go an shower. Needless to say I picked up all his trash. The piled it all on the hood of his truck and his steps then sat back and watched his reaction when he came back to his truck. PRICELESS!

Maybe truck stops need more trash facilities or a large dumpster. I really don’t know what is available since I’m not a driver. Thanks for your honesty and for caring. Be safe and see you next time!

    I was in New York at a TA and the trucker parked next to me had a bag of human poo hanging from his passenger window. The inside of his truck looked like a dumpster. The garbage can and the store were not very far of a walk. I cannot for the life of me imagine how these people can live like that? It's just disgusting. Very sad and pathetic. I realize a lot of truckers battle with depression and they probably just don't care about life much anymore so they develop these awful disgusting habits, but we can do better than that. Nasty.

    Your rant is legitimate. I was in sales and did 50,000 miles for 20 winters in the upper midwest. I enjoy winter. I did not like bad road conditions but back then, 20 years ago I believe people respected each other, property and the environment. Now we farm small scale and travel many miles to our distant adult children, we find many rude, arrogant and obnoxious people in travel centers, rest areas and on the highway. I always look for independent trucks, specialized loads. We enjoy your videos. We have a 10 year GS too!

    Good rant. All true. It seems the majority of drivers out here come from places where they didn't know what trash service was, what running water was , what a toilet was,etc, etc. I see them washing their feet in the sinks, then blow their nose in their hand over the sink, then out the door. Oh, this after they use the toilet stall as their own phone booth, never caring about the next guy. Slobs. When you come here looking to better yourself that's great, but leave the filth that you're running from behind.
