What's it like to deliver propane as either a home delivery driver or a cylinder delivery driver?

@I love tequila

Based on every thread you create, are you really serious about getting CDL?

 

Propane retail delivery Mexican style....

 

Yep, I know that Mexican Propane song / music jingle well,
In Mexico we use more gas because one of the biggest costs
in Mexico is Electricity, Mexico only has like 4 Nuclear plants,
still very heavy reliant on fossil fuels to generate electricity !

Not only that, but those guys jack those filled cylinders up out of the
truck with one arm / hand, great workout, I've always thought to myself
that the last person one would want to get into a fight with is one of
those Mexican Propane guys, anyone that can lift a filled cylinder
propane tank with one arm would definite be someone that would
have to be taken down with a death blow and not to be wrestling with !

 

In a few years?! Holy crap. Talk about being prepared lol. Any delivery type job is going to require a strong back and tolerance for dealing with receivers who can be rude.

 

Not sure, good question !
My Brother a Navy Submariner and graduate of the Naval Nuclear Power School that's been managing a Nuclear Plant for FP&L - Florida Power & Light, the last 33 years could probably answer that for you better than I, but if I had to guess at it I would say that they run their own, believe it or not Mexico is really big on education, until you actually get a College Degree you will not see any real money, the very reason a lot of them come this way !, can't afford a College Education in Mexico

Remember that Mexico is not a poor country, they have Oil, just all the money is at the Federal Level and they share somewhat via less taxes than normal on the citizenry !, Not only that but Germany has a large influence in Mexico, Volkswagen Mexico, reason Mexican Beer is the best in the world, took the gold medal at the Chicago World Fair and in Germany even, lots of Germans migrated to Mexico after WWII, that and they were already there in that Hitler had planned to invade the USA from Mexico, even if you take the lyrics out of Mexican music what do you have ?, German Poka !, taking into account of the German intellectuals there I would gather to say that Mexicans run their own Nuclear Plants, no need to import anyone !

PACCAR and International both have manufacturing plants in Mexico !, I believe Freightliner also but don't quote me on that one !

 

Trotsky also fled to mexico after helping commit the bolshevik revolution in russia. Thankfully, he was shot in the head while he down there.

 

I think I'm familiar with that story !
