Tractorman810 Posted June 13, 2008 Share Posted June 13, 2008 people causing mayhem at just about any garage i went past today down to the strike, hell they don't have any more than 3 or 4 shell garages around here, yet just about every garage is queued out into the road causing hold ups as the numbnuts panic they might run out, wouldn't mind if they were all shell ,but how the hell is a strike with them going to stop Morrison's or BP running out, i ask you,all need shhoting really do Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They only have enough trucks to deliver there usual loads to garages, more demand at those garages will require more fuel deliveries, with not enough trucks to do the deliveries there are going to be some empty fuel storage tanks under quite a few forecourts if this strike carries on for any period of time.
