    Person can call his home office and give the trailer / truck number and a description of why you’re making this call too.... A holes will always be A holes as long as no one shuts them down! Lot of wrecks today could be avoided if drivers weren’t A holes thinking they have the world by the balls......

    Rank, I dont recall the gallon amount anymore, something around 5000 gallons a year. But it was 24 hours a day 7 days a week. But keeping them wreckers melted in winter and a paint shop added to that. State of Ohio had a issue with us storing that much. Applied for a environmental program at a local college, more a paperwork scenario. Then we were a drop off, and set up a trailer to go to local quick lubes and auto shops. We would take their oil for free, saving them money. Next problem was I had to much. Had to partner with a company that handled bulk used oil and stored it in a bank. Now I had it down to them doing the work, never had to send are employee out pumping, and come spring I traded surplus oil for the new environmental safe dust topping on stone parking lot.

    That environment friend stuff took about x4 amount as the old oil based stuff. But worked.

    I usually end up having them park me just after the closure and have to wait it out. It sucks but only happens a couple times a year.

    I don't think we produce enough oil to feed an oil burner. Right now we save it for a friend and sometimes cash in on it when we need to borrow equipment that he has.

    Back when I worked for the company we switched to radiant tube heaters and it cut our heat bill in half.

    Well 750 miles yesterday- and I am home for the weekend. Likely have to bounce back a 1000 miles or so when things get sorted out. So yes - I will have bounced 2800 miles to home and back....

    Today is Zoe’s 3rd birthday - so we had ice cream last night and will have cake today!

    I did. All I heard was a high pitched voice yelling about an empty keg and then they hung up on me. Not very professional. Your office staff acts like a two year old.
