Setting - TA Truck Stop

I recently went to Tuscaloosa, Alabama for spring break. I had a great time especially doing my research there at the TA Truck Stop. TA Truck Stop is a full-service national travel center chain in the U.S., with 165 locations serving hundreds of thousands of professional drivers and other highway travelers each month, including long-haul trucking fleets/professional drivers, independent professional Motorists, drivers/owner operators, RV`ers. motor-coaches, virtually all major trucking fleets.  Anyhow there are different types of truck drivers, such as long distance and local drivers to drivers of hazardous materials and owner operators, if not all most of the drivers rely on Travel Centers of America as their "home away from home" while working on the road. TA helps take care of all the drivers over-the-road needs as they push forward to meet their deadlines to get to their destination. TA has different services for these drivers such as diesel fuel and gasoline, truck repair and maintenance, restaurants: full-service dining and fast-food courts, travel and convenience stores. The driver amenities include showers, business services, laundry facilities, weigh scales, video arcades and more.  I discovered that the truckers come from all areas of the U.S, all with a similar if not different story. They like to travel, it pays good, some do it for their families, some even do it because it fits their personality. I discovered they are just like anyone else out here trying to make a living. I left the TA Truck Stop with a brain freeze and a bellyache due to the free refills on slush and sweet tea, their food selection is also good. The people there are so friendly.
