In before all the people bitching because they chose to be employed in a higher-paying, but more volatile and less secure field.

Guess you were in a coma between the spring of 2009 and the summer of 2014.

Uh, even if you put 10 gallons in your car twice a week you are talking about saving $1,500 a year with zero effort. Not sure anyone would turn down that deal except for the oilfield trash.
Again, if you have any sort of decent sized investment portfolio that 1500 a year is nothing.

Never realized how many people on the OT were worried about gas prices so much. Im going to assume now that everyone has been driving Honda Accords and other high gas mileage cars.

Liquidity is king in this scenario. Not looking long-term, just enjoying the break while it lasts.

I don't think people are worried about it; just a nice break at the pump and it's enjoyed.

Correlation is not causation though. The stock market dropped more and gas was more expensive than now.

Sure a 100 bucks is cool but when you consider how much you earn and spend every month on other stuff it's not that big a deal. Relative to everything else, so what

Could have had a break at the pump for years by not driving trucks and sports cars. The people most vocal about these savings on here seem to be people driving vehicles with crappy gas mileage.
Other side of the coin

It's also not just baws, a lot of middle management, accountants, and engineers are out job hunting in a horrible job market as well.

This doesn't just affect the oilfield baws though. This is going to affect the state's overall financial health.
