We are not having these issues in Texas. This sounds a little scary while taking an 11 hour road trip.

It amazes me how others judge those for what they are doing and then put their opinion on here. this article is about the reason why there was a shortage. good Lord people, go vent somewhere else. wow. saw a certain person on here relating to mental disorders, and after reading their psychological evaluation of other people it occurred to me they were just analyzing themselves. the article is about a gas shortage. some on here think that it is selfish for others to fill their cans up. well what if they are worried about a grid down situation, or have someone on O2 and need a generator going, or other reasons.

"We continue to encourage the company to quickly resolve this issue and mitigate any impact on the community and residents.” Encourage???? I think we need to do more than that!!! So is anyone working with this company? Do we have an update on the status of how and when they will meet the EPA standard? Shouldn't someone be reporting on them and finding out what they are doing to resolve this? From the article above..

Sadly he wasn't able to find gas anywhere from gulf shores to Navarre. Thank God we were able to get a few cans of gas here in Destin to bring to him. He was running on fumes when we got to him. Today he didn't make the trip to his job in gulf shores due to the gas shortages. So don't judge everyone at the pump for getting cans of gas. I'm sure there are many hoarding gas and panic buying but there may also be others like us that got a call to help someone who is stranded and can't make it home from work.

Lot of that going around in what used to be a close knit community. "I'm not wearing a mask!" muh freedoms! "I'm not staying home to stop the spread!" muh freedoms! "I got my gas, to heck with you!" muh freedoms! Shameful, selfish knuckleheads.

What happened to Americans helping others out or caring for the person behind you in line who is in a similar situation? It is sad to see grown adults act like it is all about Me. Some people brought up good points such as what about your neighbor? We will have gas later in the week, so stop panicking. My friend was in line waiting while the guy with the truck and gas cans ran out the pump. Needless to say, she and the others in line did not get gas. We are really seeing people's true colors. Hopefully, people will be considerate of others. Well, after reading the numerous comments about filling up my gas cans etc….It is the epitome of greed.

I just told my boss when I get too low to get to work I wont be able to come to work. He understands, but hopes that all will be resolve sooner than later. I wish people were a little more caring and would think about others. I have a little over half a tank. I just told my boss when I get too low to get to work I wont be able to come to work.
