Unfortunately you are right. He's about 7 miles from my house. Will keep windows closed to avoid stench.

Pushed it past the gas price dip. Someone should ask Brandon about all that.

Sheetz slashes gas price by 50% to $1.776 per gallon. But only for one day

I worked at Flex for about seven years. They were always building stuff for innovative companies, until the bills came due and the companies moved production to Mexico and China. The average stay at Flex was about six months.
