Well I work for skywest so most look like grandmas 😂. I’m an old man in the skywest world and most of my FA’s are 10-15 years older than me. But touché they probably still better than those lot lizards
Hey, at this point if someone wanted to take me home, bake me some cookies, and knit me a sweater, I'd be down for that.

Besides, I've seen some lot lizards around here, and most are old and nasty. The good looking ones are cops.

I made the mistake of going over Vail pass (never had been to CO before, didn’t know any better) on the 53’ flatbed hauling lumber from Oregon to Denver in January. Everything was fine in the end, but what a terrible route for semis 😂

I try to avoid that drive in Winter at all costs, had to drive to Cheyenne and back in January... took the longer route thru Steamboat both directions, even though it added 30+ minutes.

The Great Reset is on. This is part of making things so expensive that we usher in more government like Build Back Better and the Green New Deal.

We need to push the MFers out and stop buying into their manufactured drama.
Geopolitics has and always will have a major impact on oil prices and thus gas prices at the pump.

The current spikes since the Russian invasion of Ukraine have nothing to do the either of the issues you mention.

With a world-traded commodity such as oil, disruptions in production, transport and simple uncertainty affects prices. And reality is that even with increased domestic oil production we would not be insulated from that since prices are set on a global market (US companies would just get more of the extra profit.)

If you want to protect yourself against the near-constant fluctuations in gas prices, which have been going on for at least the last 50 years, your best option is an electric vehicle. Which ironically would fit well with the goals of the New Green Deal.

While no doubt the situation in Ukraine has had an effect on the current situation. Shit was going sideways waaaaaay before that happened. It’s just a convenient scape goat/blame shift (if I could find a meme of Julia Robert’s in the Mexican yelling blame shifter) of the government. This BS was wholly brought to you socialist policy and paying people $18hr to flip burgers.

Hey we raised minimum wage and are paying “lower income” people a livable wage now. Give me a break, I’m no economic expert, I’m sharp as a marble and I could see this coming.
