“Wanted to give a huge shout out of gratitude to Erin at the convenience store (Shell?) At PR 37 & 1283 last night. My dad & I were out cruising in our 56 Chevy wagon when it overheated. It was somewhere between 9-10 & the Valero we rolled into was closed & the water machine wasn't working. Told my dear old Dad to stay with the car & I'd get us water & a drink. Erin's store was out of gallon water (we were going to pour it outside of radiator to help cool it down) but she came up with a quick easy way for this outta shape overweight 50 year old to hoof it back to the hot car with required cooling fluids for all.Erin, I can't thank you enough for helping me find the best & cheapest solution to my problem. She said she was "just an assistant manager" but she'll always be more than that to me! Hope you're doing well, Erin!!!”

“A cheeseburger from a convenience store that has a sign out front and it claims to be “best burgers in town”, I couldn’t help but laugh and had to try it!!! I had my mother with me and she is a die hard Whataburger woman(me 2), other than homemade of course. Imagine our surprise when OMG, it actually was one of the best burgers I have eaten. The seasoned patty, perfect condiments, and the pickle that gave the finish bite a party in my mouth. I have seen the man that has worked in that kitchen for ever, he seems a little cold, but not at all. He is a very nice person and the experience of eating a delicious burger at a tiny old gas station was just a perfect memory. Now it’s a must when we drive to that town. If you have never tried it, I just recommend it.i always forget to take pictures, but today I took them. The man in the red shirt is absolutely the BEST cook. He has been here for years.”

Read the postLove's Travel Stops is rolling out a new system that turns work into a game for its restaurant employees.
