    Got loaded with snot in Shreveport and am unloading in midland. They changed the set up. They used to unload everything in one area and had a great pump.
    Now they separated the blend tanks because those pesky signs indicating what 'flavor blend it was, was apparently for amateurs. Now my blend is across the property and I have a John Deere mud pump that is taking 3 times as long as the old pump.


    And I have snot on my bum :(

    Ran out of hours on my 70, so I had to delay delivery until tomorrow when I pick up another 10. After I drop this trailer I'm picking up a preload in Memphis and heading out towards Oklahoma. Google maps shows the delivery location in the middle of a farm field so I'm thinking its a newer oil well or something. If not I'll just fertilize some crops when I get there :D

    its some kind of caustic. Only 600 gallons :) I suspect I'll be unloading this into a tote or three. Shouldn't take more than 15 minutes so I'm not complaining about the rubber suit I have to wear!

    I've delivered a couple loads of that di icer to their.. I had to unload into 2 or 3 tanks before I was done.. was my first time on a huge runway like that just riding around.. I was glad I had a guide.. I always wondered how those pilots don't get lost.. the guy said they do.. sometimes the drive off runway too and have to get pulled out...

    Picking up another snot load tomorrow. I ran over contaminated mud somewhere and it ate the heck out of my fuel tanks, fittings box, catwalk, and chain holders. I tried using a $16 of cleaner,polisher yesterday and it did absolutely but gum the microfiber towel,tgat the bottle told me to use, and scratch the tank. I am so going to get chewed out

    Those tanks and aluminum look like you will have to acid wash and have everything polished again...I had the same thing happen with mud on mine before.
    Not sure what was in it but I was at a concrete plant.....That sucks!

    NAPA Auto Parts still sell the full strength aluminum acid...
