The bathroom is inside was very clean and the attendant was kind.”
“I just have to give a huge shoutout to Taylor D. at Wawa! ? I stopped by for a quick visit, and from the moment I walked in, Taylor made sure my experience was top-notch. I was having one of those days where everything seemed to go wrong, but her positive attitude and willingness to help really turned things around. Not only did she help me find exactly what I was looking for, but she also made sure I got the freshest coffee and even offered great suggestions on some snacks I hadn’t tried before. ?☕ She was patient, super friendly, and just went above and beyond to make sure I was happy with everything. It’s rare these days to come across such excellent customer service, and Taylor absolutely nailed it. ? She genuinely cared about making my experience a good one, and I left feeling so much better than when I walked in. Huge thanks to Taylor D. for being amazing and for making my Wawa visit one to remember! ??”

Love's Travel Stops is rolling out a new system that turns work into a game for its restaurant employees. Picture this: Three big screens in each restaurant, tracking how fast workers greet customers, take orders, and hand out food. It's not just for show - early results say it's making service 11 seconds faster on average. "These monitors track key performance metrics in real-time, such as greet times, order processing times and the time it takes for food handoff," Love's explains. The system creates a more interactive environment, fostering friendly competition between stores.
