    I filled up yesterday and someone had spilled gas all over the place filling up tanks. Hoarders at heart when it comes to survivalism.

    Personally I store all my gas in my bathtubs and just scoop it out as needed.

    Same principle as keeping money under my mattress instead of at the bank really.

    I don't care what the price is I only fill up when I'm close to empty. Yesterday was $3.86 at Costco and people were going to the Wawa next door for $4.29 like idiots (don't need membership). 18 gallons see you in a couple weeks.

    idk man if a full tank of gas costs more than vast majority of workers make in a full 8 hour day of labor you can expect people to just stop going to work eventually

    cheap people tend to drive to the closest first nations gas stations up here. even if you don't have a status card their prices are always cheaper due to their stations being able to buy gas tax free

    mind you you might have to drive 30-45 minutes to get to the closest reserve

    I'm scared to see what Costco is at this weekend when I'll be due for another fill up. Car needs Premium, and Non costco places are now hitting over $6.00 a gallon for Premium, so expecting Costco to be around $5.00.

    Honest question, do the vast majority of workers really make at or around minimum wage?

    I dunno how many are working minimum wage jobs, but apparently 64% of y'all are living paycheck to paycheck

    the canadia federal gov makes like 20 billion a year from crude oil taxation and probably double that from the production side. that shit ain't going anywhere

    although alberta removed their provincial tax on gas just the other day... but the feds ain't gonna be about that life

    It’s always Trudeau’s fault. For oil price, our freedom, our jobs, education, the reason I cannot get a shiny in Pokémon, why I’m still 0/150 for a kraken club.

    I would like to say that all this talk of gas prices that people forget about plastics. Work is likely to go back order on two diagnostic kits this year because our suppliers can't get us plastic protein concentrators until June the earliest.

    Also wonder if I may have to be furloughed or get shifted into some business track work because my work duties are idle until a solution is found (and validated, paperwork, FDA/TUV/all the alphabet regulatory etc.) or we get supplied.
