There are no Shell stations, or stations period, close to my house that carry diesel. So, went down to the Hughes to fill up the company truck -- $1.189/L. I have to try to find a locking cap...it's gonna start again.

I think my hourly rate just went up a couple of bucks an hour. Well......... at least I am going to go ask for another raise! If raise does not come through, I might have and extra hour or two of OT showing up. One of the few advantages of being a contract operator.

I did not even know about the price increase lately. Will have to drive by a pump and see what it is in FSJ.

$1.50. I hope this Alberta Advantage I keep hearing about shows up soon. I bet if you ask most people, working 70-80+ hours a week isn't much of an advantage.

Time for a Bio still in the garage I'm thinking. Even if I cut it 60%, that would save a pile of dough..

How much do you need? I was looking into that as all the sites I visit have drums of it just laying around. I asked around on a supplier and pricing, but haven't heard back yet..
