Re-Volting Wait

I’m working at a petrol station. We’re one of the few in the area that has EV charging stations (there are loads now, but at the time of the story, they were quite novel). A Tesla pulls up, and the driver, a tired-looking guy, gets out first and starts charging. 

His wife/partner gets out a few seconds later, looking even more tired, carrying a screaming toddler.

It’s late at night, and they have to wait quite a bit longer before the car is charged enough to finish their journey. At least I guess this is the case, as the wife shouts:

Wife: “You just had to save the f****** world, didn’t you, Gordon?!”

Even with the supercharger, it was a loooong half hour.
