  • What the hell?

    One from the other day...

    On the way home one night, I had to stop and get gasoline. So I pull into the local GetGo, shut the car off, and start dealing with the pump. As I'm sitting there, this woman in a Mazda pulls in behind me. Normally people do that if all of the pumps are in use. Were they? Hell no. The entire other side was open, along with both pumps to my right.

    I'm standing there, hand on the trigger, and I see something moving in the car behind me. This woman is huffing and puffing about how I'm "taking too long." Again, are you serious?

    Not only was I getting fuel, so I walked into the store, ordered a sandwich (seriously, they're freaking awesome), and as I'm standing at the counter waiting to pay, I see the Mazda suddenly reverse, pull around, and then stop right next to my car

    The woman gets out, waddles around the car, and then starts glaring at me through the window. When she's done and paid, she lays rubber out of the parking lot. I could have somewhat understood if the place was busy and all of the pumps were full, but what the hell?

    You must have been on "her" pump, the one she always uses. It was a shock to her system to discover that the employees are NOT reserving it for her exclusive use 24/7. Now you've sullied it. A lesser being in her eyes (basically, anyone but her) has touched it. It's....it's dirty. ~_~
