I’m blaming the company for this apparent vulnerability. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The supply of gas isn't lower than usual, more people are just getting it right now because they're freaking out, causing gas stations to run out faster This has been well documented today and beaten to death already Edited May 12, 2021 by mammajamma 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe some trucks are running but at least some of the supply chain has been interrupted. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TheGoodBits Posted May 12, 2021 Share Posted May 12, 2021 Places around here had lines back onto the street and were selling out of gas today. I laughed and called them idiots. Then my wife reminded me we’re going on a trip on Friday, so I went to join the line before all the dumb asses buy up all the gas. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's going to take a while for all the stations here to get back online. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TheGreatBuzz Posted May 12, 2021 Share Posted May 12, 2021 Any chance this will make people finally realize how vulnerable our infrastructure grid and supply chains are and do something about it? Nah, we are still too dumb. 8 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Springfield Posted May 12, 2021 Share Posted May 12, 2021 I manage an auto shop, gas station. We ran out of all gas last night at about 6:00. Got a small delivery of gas at 8:25 this morning, premium only. Ran out of that at 11:25. Every other station around us is out of gas too. We don’t know when our next load of gas is going to come. Stop ****ing calling us asking if we have gas and when our next delivery is coming please. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
