When I first drove my A in the summer of 73 I worked at a gas station,and gas was 28 cents.But,i made less than $2.per hour,so I had to work nearly 2 hours to fill it up.Now,it's less than an hours pay to fill it.To be fair back then it was wages,today,it's what I charge for contract labor,whether I'm working on something,building,plumbing,doing electrical,driving truck,or operating equipment.I do short term work for guys in the trades that need help for an hour or a day.
