gas station attendant
 

Went to a gas station in my town at lunch yesterday, guy asks how much, it's raining so I roll down the window and say "give me 20" and hand him a $20 figuring it's quicker so the guy doesn't have to come back to the window and he can get back inside. 3 minutes later after pumping the gas he comes up to the window and asks for the money ?!?! I tell him I just paid him when he asked how much. You know what happens next :lossinit:

Words are exchanged and I blow my top and start screaming at him and I tell him to cash out his drawer right now, which he doesn't. Call the cops so I don't look like I ripped him off cuz he's writing down the plate #. Cops come and listen to both stories. Guy says they don't take the money before pumping, even though he did. Cop makes him cash out and what do you know, the guy comes up $20 short of course cuz he pocketed it.

Cop tells me he doesn't think I ripped him off, otherwise I wouldn't still be there, I would have taken off. That's true because no way I'm gonna let someone call me a thief. But because it's my word against his and his drawer was short, cop says I gotta pay again or get arrested :lossinit:

Fuming now, I take out another 20 and rip it into 4 pieces and crumple them into a ball and whip it at the guys head and falls into a puddle. Cop gives me a grin :D But he did end up giving me a lecture about keeping one of my sons baseball bats next to the drivers seat :angel: Apparently they don't like to see that.

I'm going to talk to the owner of the station but I don't expect to get anywhere with that. So next week I'm going in and getting $30 worth of gas and when that same guy comes to get the money I'm dumping a bag of $30 in loose pennies out the window :devil:

More proof that people SUCK!! :rocketem: :rocketem:

wow
 

unbelievable..... i understand your reason for being hostile...about being ripped off.... just, change your tactics....and remember when your sitting in a court room or a jail cell for assault... what you'd be willing to pay to be out free and clear and have it be just a bad memory....
200 dollars ..............2000?

that being said: keep it in perspective.... now- go get your pennies :musc:

Oops....I need to clarify. The bat is strictly for protection when I drive through not so nice neighborhoods. It never came out of the car, the cop just saw it sitting in there.

now thats a real sting at the pump.....people suck

another reason as to why i NEVER use cash anymore :P

That's why you need to leave a kids glove and ball in there too. It would be hard for the cop to argue if you said it is my sons and he left it in there. Just a thought. That sux about the attendant. I like the penny idea though.

Chris what station was this at? I don't want to go there!

I live for this crap, what station? I love filling up wiyh pennies at peak times! let me know. :biglaugh: :bl2:

Tony, it's that no name station around the corner from you on Union St.

get his plate #, which can be run to get his address. then go to his house and siphon your 20 bucks out of his tank. :devil: :zup: :devil:

I will tell all of the guys in the garage at work not to go there.

i sent something wicked his way..... :vamp::devil::spidey::realmad::af:

Was it the Super Petroleum on Union St.? I've had a couple problems there in the past. :splat:

go back and get $20 dollars worth and had him a $20 bill with super glue on his end.

I go there all the time and never had any problems. The guy during the mornings there seems to be in charge, talk to him. What did he look like? the afternoon guys are pretty shady.

:D :D :D I love that idea!

$30.00 please?

Here you go, Jerky! then fire 3000 pennies at him out the window!

So long! :wave:

Ya know this is getting to be rather common at drive up services. Ever since MAC got shortchanged at DDs, I'v made it a point to remember the last four digits of the serial#. If a brouha arises, I can spout 7659 and have them check the till. Of cousre if they pocketed it, then I guess that's what the Little League bat is for. Later.

2000 pennies mixed with a little molasses should cover your next stop. :hihi:

thats a sweet tip.... and although they won't roll very far....it'll be a job to wash-em before they go in the register...gotta make sure they get their full
2000 pennies...:laughs:
