So every blog in the world has some complaining about high gas prices.
I don’t, it suck but wtf can you do you know?
This past monday morning I pulled into the gas station down the street from my work, like I do every week, several times a week. And started filling up my tank and went inside to get a drink, like I do every week, several times a week.
On my return I hear what sounded like running water, I then saw a river of what looked like gasoline running down the hill from my car…the pump never stopped when the tank was full, so I ended up having to pay for about 100% more gas than I needed.
This sucks, this suck real bad. I have NEVER had this happen before, and seriously, its 2008, you would think they would have this technology figured out.
On my way inside I noticed that my spilled gas was following what looked like a path from someone elses spilled gas…yes thats right, someone else already had this same thing happen to them this morning. So I tell the clerk about it and she apologizes and says that someone else had that happen earlier and that she cannot refund my money for the spilled gas because there is a sticker on the pump that says something in the vein of “do not fill tank unattended”…
Pretty ill at the situation, but not wanting to let it really bother me and ruin my Monday, I tell them that is fine but they should really close off that pump until they get it fixed.
That pump is still in action yesterday and today, though I have not seen a gasoline river flowing down the hill since then.
So there it is, my first $60 tank of gas in the Golf.
