Do you wear gloves when filling up at the servo

[HERONVY]

I USED TO WRK AT A servo b4 i got a real job and we had many funny things but gloves were the last thing any one gave a **** about we did giv a **** to the stupid dick's that would drive of with the pump in still in the tank

bahahaha ah i bet you have some memories of stupid drivers while working at that servo.

Any more funny stories?

I did my expenses today and have managed to spend $450 on fuel in 10 days. No poof gloves for me.

Reaper

That's about 3 or 4 days for me. Was it diesel? Nozzles are always covered in diesel.

As mentioned Diesel pumps are always covered in Diesel.

I've been tempted to wear gloves when filling up Diesel, it stinks and makes your hands feel **** house. A pain in the arse if your going to work, or going bush for a few days and you start by stinking of Diesel.
Personelly I just was my hands in the window washer buckets after I've filled up.

bump this weird thread - for the lols

 

[stockies]

Since seeing this thread and now that I have a G6ET - I may have to get a pair of gloves for filling up to match my driving ones.

Will match the straw hat too.

It makes sense to wear gloves when filling up with fuel as your hands are getting exposed to fuel vapours. Never seen anyone where gloves in Australia nor have I hard of anyone blaming health problems on refueling exposure.

A good idea.

i see a few people wearing gloves when refueling and when working in workshops mostly indians (the pakistani type not native american type) i dont know why but thats my observations

Ok this is my problem with the namby pamby safety bullshit. Ive been grinding and cutting **** for years without even the smallest spec going in my eyes. Wore a safety visor helmet thing to load a trailer with branches and **** and bang - a twig bounced off the visor thing and straight in my eye. hurt like #### for days :ranting:. Really..... HTFU. I can't believe people are still on about this ****.
