Really Gassed Up At The Gas Station
I am pulling into our local gas station, and all of the pumps are full except one behind a pickup with a trailer. I pull in, park, and head inside to pay. There is no line at the self-service kiosk, so I just hop on it and start entering my payment information.
Maybe twenty seconds have passed since I parked.
I am trying to enter my PIN when I hear some shouting from the door.
Man: “HEY, ARE YOU DRIVING THAT LITTLE [HATCHBACK]?!”
I turn and nod to the angry man wearing the “God Bless Texas” shirt and wrap-around sunglasses bellowing from the door.
Man: “Well, I am blocked in and can’t go anywhere! You need to pay f****** attention! I can’t f****** move!“
Then, he slammed the store door and stomped over to his truck. The vehicle in front of him was a good eight feet from the front of his truck and was already in the process of backing out. In the time it took him to scream at me, he would have already been on his way. And had he been polite, I would have pulled forward to let him out before pumping anyway.
Then, he tried to gun it out of the gas station. He almost hit a pedestrian and then stopped to scream something at them.
Some people just create their own problems, I guess.
