    If you guys are so worried about fumes, you just need to move to OK, LOL! The winds here are ALWAYS blowing so as soon as you pop the lid, you just kick back for 10-15 sec and mother nature clears the air.

    If I could find 'rotation' someplace less icy, snowy and cold that's where I'd be. Once when I was in college, I was driving to the bus station. I hit an exit ramp and the car did, I think it was, three 360s before settling in the middle of the road aimed in the right direction. I could go on and on about near misses. Being from Michigan, I know enough to know never to drive on ice if there is another way.

    A friend sent me an article. It shows that OSHA isn't the mommy or daddy we'd like it to be. Is it helpful? It surely appears to me to be. Can they guarantee a safe work environment and warning of possible job hazards? No, they don't always get it right, and that's without considering industry lobbying power.

    How does this relate to buying oil? Not sure, only that OSHA is no end all be all.

    we always chocked and one cone on front bumper. Then one of our 5 load a shift guy's forgot to unhook the hoses at Nu Star Oakville, TX. Jerked the hoses off damaged everything. So we had to use two cones, one front one rear. So we started calling the dude "Hoser".......Not long after that another 5 load a night guy's forgot the vent line, { honestly I was shocked he used the vent line } Jerked it off, time to go find another job. Sometimes when you " Go Big "..........you go home. ha
