Today's events have rminded me of a job
{in an Oil Refinery}
that I had in my youth -



I Feel Another Story A Comming On - - - - -


You See

We had a SPILL of Heavy Crude Oil in the South Tank
Field. The heavy crude oil had seeped out of the huge
tanks but the oil spill had been contained by the dikes
that surrounded each tank in the Tank Field.

They located and repaired the leaks in 2 of the tanks.
They then pumped as much of the oil as possible back
into the tanks.

Mike Havlicek {our Foreman} selected 10 men, then he
seperated them into 2 crews {A & B Crews}.
I had the priviledge of being in charge of the 'B' Crew.

We were issued Rubber Boots, Rubber Gloves, Shovels
and Wheel Barrows. A Load of Sand was dumped on each
of the Tank Dikes and a Dumpster with a ramp,
was placed on the outside of the dikes.

We were instructed to scoop up the remaining Heavy Crude
Oil, place it in the Wheelbarrows, wheel the remainents up
the ramp and dump it in the dumpster. When this job was
completed, we were then to spread fresh sand over the
ground where the Heavy Crude Oil Had Been.

I was real thankful for the cool overcast weather that day
because the 'B' Crew worked very hard . It took us about 8
hours to clean up the mess created by that one oil spill.

I well remember getting Chewed Out By Mike Havlicek
Because
the 'A' Crew
Had Cleaned Up Their Mess In Less Than 3 Hours !

HOWEVER

JUST THREE DAYS LATER

THE THERMOMETER WAS 102' when Mike Havlichek came
by to check for any more Leaks.

The Fresh Sand Gleamed Around The Tank Where 'B' Crew
Had Worked So Hard For 8 Hours _

BUT

When He Got To The Tank
Where The "A" CREW Had Done Such A Good Job

HE
WAS
F L A B B E R G A S T E D

Because

The Heavy Crude Oil

Was Poking Its Ugly Head Out Of The Sand

ALL OVER THE PLACE !



You See
Instead Of
Exposing And Getting Rid
Of The Heavy Crude Oil

They Just Covered It Over
By Heavily Spreading The Truck Load Of Sand
Over The Top
Of The Spilled Crude !

My What A Mess

It Took Us TWO Weeks To Clean It Up !



Thinking of that

really makes me know

That WHEN

THE HEAT GETS TURNED UP

COVERED SIN

WILL POKE OUT IT'S UGLY HEAD

EVERY TIME !

JMHO

I think maybe there is something wrong with my browser....all I see is "blah blah blah. blah blah":slaphappy

Didn't Havlicek play for the Knicks?

Admin asked for such references to be dropped. Most of us have done so.

LOL

Naah;

He Was Too Old

He Must Have Been 60 Years Old In 1957
When He Was A Foreman at Standard Oil -
