Yep.
Let me put it this way:
My lawyer is angry about fuel prices. His per hour rate had gone up 50% in the last 10 years.
My doctor is angry about higher fuel prices. His rate for an office visit has tripled in the last 10 years.
Lots of people are angry.
What does Joe do? Joe is a wellsite geologist who makes his living on an oil rig--when they are drilling. In the last 10 years the rigs spent one shut down when oil prices were lower than the cost of a barrel to put it in. Joe didn't make much money, but he still had to pay those other folks. Now, in the last 5 years, Joe has been employed steadily. His day rate has doubled over those 5 years. Not as good a curve as the other guys' wages but, wtf, Joe providees an essential service in the production an exploration for an essential commodity. Joe, like most in his industry, works a 12 hour day, away from home, 7 days per week until the job is done. Then Joe does it again.
Joe has to buy fuel, heat his house, feed his kids, etc. too. Handle it. We're just catching up with inflation.
