    Yup been there done that and since we are paid hourly for everything it’s no big deal. Running hydrogen it’s weird how we don’t even load our own trailers. Just drop and hook!

    If I remember correctly. Southern Pines is getting into hydrogen. But it's a small group.
    Also we're paid daily. As long have either 6 or 7 hours of on duty time. I might be wrong. We tend to kill the clock anyway.

    Hopefully I don't get shoved into that. Taking a few weeks to learn nitrogen and cryo in general. Then get shoved on that

    Should of taken a picture. But a Purdue plant has something leaking at the bottom of a tank. Has a nice sized pile of "snow/ice" around a pipe. Have told them about it multiple times. Still not fixed. Its not loosing pressure or anything. Other than some product coming out slowly. If they don't do anything about it soon. Then hopefully Matheson refuses to give them more deliveries. It loads fine. So unless it's fixed. They will just need to order more than needed

    What's up with that? Did they not have the product ready?

    Low on product and wanted to transfer.
    Normally you could fill during but they are having issues with pressures and equalization when trailers are filling.
    Last week I needed to get under 12psi in the trailer in order to load liquid.
    Seems they have not got it figured out yet.

    So I realized something today. Pony motor knob for rpm is picky. Need to almost barely move it. I ended up on flipping clutch with it down to like 0rpm
