Thanks for suggesting she park at a Flying J. I work in Financial Services for Flying J and see the Expeditors parked near the restaurant or in front with the RVers all the time. I think it's a great idea. I talk to a lot of drivers (duh!) and, for the most part, they all comment that Flying J is by far safer and cleaner than any of the other fuel stops.

As a woman going out to the fuel islands to talk to drivers, I'm very cautious and never venture out in back unless I'm accompanied by another employee. Even then, I don't go out back to talk to drivers...only to walk the lot and get some exercise. I wear my name tag and fortunately, have only had my position questioned once in the last 1-1/2 years. Drivers give the best advice and I try to make it a point to listen.

You might wonder why I'm on this board. It's not to solicit business. Actually, I'm seriously considering becoming an expeditor. I'm nearly 58 years old, no real ties at home and I need a change. I hear from the expeditors that the money is decent. So, I'm looking for some advise and will post another another thread.
