I recently quit working at a gas station and this is the story of what happened my next to last night. I always worked the closing shift generally from 4pm-12am.
We have a maintenance guy who only comes in on the weekdays to do miscellaneous stuff like take out the trash outside. On the weekends its the midshift persons responsibility to do this, but as we were short staffed it hadn't been done this particular day and the trashcans were close to overflowing.
Well this happened at about 11:00pm in a college town on the weekend; in other words a good time not to act like a jackass or the police will give you a good talking to.
A group of yokels from the local highschool pull up in a pickup truck with 6 or so of them riding in the bed of the truck.They decide that now is the perfect time to empty the assload of trash that they have accumulated in said truck. As the cans on this side of the store were full they decided to just throw the trash all over the ground outside
Something these kids didn't know is that our store is the only one in town that lets people use their credit cards to get gas 24 hours so the cops use only our gas station. A cop who was inside saw what was happening and said that they weren't technically doing anything illegal, just being asshats. However, you cannot let people ride in the back of a truck as it has no seatbelts. So the officer gets into his car and pulls up behind the truck as its leaving. As soon as their truck hits the road the officer turns on his lights and pulls them over. Turns out the kid driving didn't have a license and the car was impounded and the kids had to call Mommy and Daddy to come pick them up teehee.
