Huh, if only there was another way to wean ourselves off of oil dependency…

Well, whichever way the wind blows, I’m sure there our dear leader’s sunny disposition will figure it out. Just need to research new,clear forms of energy.

It went up 60¢ here overnight last night. Right now we’re at $4.29/gallon. And for a guy for which driving is a key part of his job, this sucks.

Thanks, Trump!

Assuming you get mileage reimbursement, but I’m sure HRs aren’t considering any of the current trends and using outdated AAA data from last year to determine the rate.

My position gets an amount based on the number of miles that’s estimated we drive per week. That’s added to our paycheck along with allowance for cell phone. I’d ask for an increase, but as soon as I did, gas would go back down and I’d lose it.
