  • Sprayed with gas

    About a year ago I was outside pumping gas for customers. A guy told me he wanted $20 worth of gas.

    I start his gas and move to the next guy and when I came back it was just under $18 and he said "Hey I said $10!". I told him he said $20.

    We got into a verbal argument and he threw $18 at me and left after telling me he was going to get me.

    About an hour later I was very busy and was just finishing up an old ladies gas and as I was hanging the nozzle up I got hit in the head from behind. My glasses went flying and as I turned around theres 2 guys hoping around saying ahh yeah.

    I said f*ck this, and pointed the nozzle at them and pulled the trigger. I got them both and they moved back, they jumped into a GMC Jimmy that I had just pumped $5 of gas into. I sprayed gas all over its winshield and hood and then started yelling wheres my lighter?

    They took off and a co-worker came out to see what was up and told me to go inside and calm down.

    The next day I told my boss and his dad what happened and the bosses dad shook my hand and said none of the other guys would have had the guts to do that. I thought for sure I would be fired.

    The guy had the nerve to call the next day, the bosses dad answered and told him to stay away since he hit me and that he got what he deserved.

    He called again the next day and the boss told him the same thing, the guy told my boss he was going to sue me for getting gas on his sisters Jimmy. The boss told him good luck since i was just defending myself against his attack.

    The police that come in heard about it and all thought it was funny and just said you got to do what you can to protect yourself.

    Nothing ever came from the lawsuit threat.

    I always thought that would be an excellent bit of self defense at the gas pumps. If feel kind of vulnerable sometimes when I have to pump gas at night. And I'm the sort always looking for a weapon or an escape route. Spraying someone with gas would take the fight right out of them, especially since they don't know if you have a lighter handy.

            You're close to the New Jersey/Pennsylvania border, aren't you?

            I love having full service gas stations in New Jersey.

              Hah! The little punks decided to mess with the wrong person and they got their shit fucked up and then decide to run and "Cry Victim". Major, major tools. Just like this Judge Judy case when some punk jumps a nerdy kid and gets stabbed in the chest by his girlfriend. It's fun to watch his "mother" get told off....

                Also I'm not sure which is worse gettign CS spray in the face or Gasoline. Both wind up feeling like your eyes are litterally melting out of their sockets. Not to mention the fumes are rather lasting and take a good hard scrubbing to get most fo them off. Get drenched in enough and you will have a new after shave for a day or so at least.

                    Your Police are AWESOME. Where I live I never could have gotten away with that. Out here the only way to have gotten charges on them and stayed scot-free would have been to run into the office after being hit lock yourself in and call the cops...

                    Which is of course SO not what I would do if attacked like that.

                        The problem I see with wielding a spraying gas hose is that you are going up in a ball of flame too, since gas is so very flammable. Kind of a pyrhhic victory.

                          That was awesome. I would have loved to have seen that. I live in Oregon and all our gas stations (state wide) are full service. It's against the law here for someone to pump their own gas.

                          On one hand it kind of sucks because when it's really busy it would be quicker to just pump your own gas, but on the other hand it actually helps the state's economy by creating jobs

                            Maybe maybe not. Yes gas is flamable but the part that explodes is the fumes.

                            Check this video guy lights gas station on fire. He sets a gas fire on the ground. When he lights it it takes a while...
