I know this J, like Tulsa & Aurora & many others, has a big van population PLUS homeless, etc. I think it reasonable to ask us to vacate during the day. They were waking up the people sleeping in cars too.

The J in Phoenix had the same issue and cleaned it up. 24 hr parking lot security .. BUT .. the staff is kind enough to discern between commercial van operators and riff raff. It's not that difficult! If it's a big lot and the space is there, vans should be allowed to stay.

If I were asked to leave, I'd do it but I wouldn't like it.

Almost never stay during the day anyway. There is always a mall nearby, and like a moth to the light, we go

I guess Amazon is following the Uber method of putting drivers in seats. If they have a pulse, they're hired

I’m sure you might have read his rant! He wants to sue the J’s GM in court for “Theft of Services”!

Got plenty of rest last week
Sat in Little Rock until Tuesday evening, then started east because Nancy has a doctor visit on Monday. Got as far as Franklin, KY, after spending the night at the North 40 truckstop in Camden, TN. Landed a load from Nashville to Giants Stadium in NJ. Van was full to the brim with Stones T-shirts for the gig coming up this weekend. Took a room in Knoxville Wednesday night, then dropped Nancy off at our son’s house before doing the last three hours into and through Jersey.
Now at the house, will return to duty Monday.
