Exactly, or a REALLY old timer. Unreal the antics that went on even up to late 80's. And yes mostly as stupid then as now. Regards.homeskillet Thanks this.

Perhaps, but I think the article says he's 40 years old.
But yeah, we had a crusty old sob who had worked for every outfit at least TWICE.
This was Detroit, late 1990s.
He used to block open the vapor recovery tube valve on the customer tank with a screwdriver, then drop.
The poor girls in the station would ask me, "Why does the store stink of gas every time he delivers?"
I told him there were complaints, but he didn't care. "His way or the highway" kinda guy. He lasted 5 months with us, went back to another carrier, then I heard he had a MAJOR spill at a customer, like "hazmat response" major. Never heard another word about him. He was apparently not really missed by anyone.
Brain damage from the years of fumes, I guess.
The old boys working for Shell would regale us with hair-raising tales of gas hauling in the 70s and 80s...
bzinger Thanks this. -
In my Wynne transport days I whipped up a concoction of gasohol in a 4 hole trailer at Magellan in Omaha...dont remember the specifics but more booze than gas In a couple compartments.
Wound up dumping it off on 4 different Casey's stores .homeskillet Thanks this.
