Yeah, if they see it. A lot of stations have one person working nights who is also emptying the trash, stocking products, and doing every other drat thing.

Of course, if there is plausible deniability idiot management might allow it because big $ transaction.

nah, gas stations make very little money on the actual gas, they make most of their money when people come in and buy soda and candy and hotdogs and stuff. i think gas stations make a few cents per gallon at most (although more on diesel and higher grades of gas, but still not very much compared to the stuff inside the gas station)

they much prefer a lot of people coming to buy a bit of gas, rather than a few people buying a lot of gas.

I mean, I was just saying that I was the GM of a place that sold gas so I know about the margins and whatnot. You're correct that the margin is low and although it's not two cents it's rarely above ten cents (for regular unleaded anyway) but there are other factors to consider with, and I'm going to stress this for the third time, dumb management. An assistant manager might make a bonus on top-line sales. The next truck coming in could have cheaper gas so it's beneficial to move what you have out to get it there sooner, and also a lot of uneducated people (like the sort of people that might be an assistant manager at a gas station) really don't get the sales/profit distinction, or in fact, why OSHA and safety rules exist. A lot of people who work at a gas station may well empathize with trash can man and look the other way to help him stick it to the feds or whatever dumb narrative they subscribe to.


It's dumb. It's dangerous. It's bad for a dozen reasons. People will still allow it because they are too.

Related Porn OSHA:

Largely justified by arguments for safety*, the British porn industry is banned from producing films depicting:

Spanking
Caning
Aggressive whipping
Penetration by any object "associated with violence"
Physical or verbal abuse (regardless of if consensual)
Urolagnia (known as "water sports") - presumably a drowning hazard?
Female ejaculation - because conservatives literally couldn't be sure it wasn't watersports
Role-playing as non-adults
Physical restraint
Humiliation
Facesitting - they argued that there was a chance of suffocation
Strangulation - I guess there is a legit chance of mishap here
Fisting - apparently constitutes a "danger to life"

*totally not about prude conservatives making a moral judgement, no sir.

EDIT: There's more things banned too, but these ones were added as a block a few years ago under a safety justification.

It looks like a rusty old propane tank tack welded to a dual axle trailer that's been cut in half. Provided that the trailer doesn't tear itself apart going over a speed bump, that weight is so far back that it's gonna fail the trailer test:

It's for refueling vehicles at a ranch. It's on wheels so they can tow it out to a tractor in the middle of a field. They probably hauled to the gas station because they couldn't get a direct delivery from a fuel truck.

  • password

  • 12345678

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_the_most_common_passwords

Two things, though. First, a lot of passwords are pretty useless. I need to create an account to order online from my local pizza place; throwaway accounts like that, things that it is not possible to compromise in a meaningful way, are going to get useless passwords like 123456. Second, there are a lot of utterly stupid and self-defeating password policies. At my work, I need to include capital and lower case letters, plus numbers or special characters, and, oh yeah, I need to change that password every 3 months. Policies like that encourage two behaviors: You either pick easy-to-remember passwords that can be brute-forced[*] in a second or two at most, or you use hard-to-remember passwords that you write down on a note somewhere in your desk drawers. Fortunately, NIST has revised the recommendations that led to policies like that, but that will take a while to filter down.

[*] - Brute forcing a password isn't really the main concern. Passwords are pretty much precracked via rainbow tables anyway, so there's not really a whole lot of difference between 123456 and any other 6-character string. The only defense is length, the "complexity" of the password in terms of what characters you use in it is pretty much irrelevant. Which is why any backend that stores unsalted password hashes is run by someone who needs to be fired, and also why password policies should permit the use of long passphrases. It's terrifying that *banking sites* still limit your password length.
