Gas Station Lady
Well, today I went to get gas and return a library book! The book was really late, hate to see the fine on that sucka. I skipped A-team practice too because I felt crappy. Actually I just needed to crap, but anyways!
I was at the Kroger gas station, sorta in a hurry to get home...and so I stood in line waiting to pay cash. This fat lady was in front of me, just waiting until I got up there, and then decided to say something. I saw her standing around for the entire time pumped the gas. WHen I started to come over she decided to get in line. Thats not a big deal, but it's annoying because she decided to complain about her 10 cent discount. If you go to Kroger and spend over $100 at one time, then the next time you get gas it's 10 cents per gallon off instead of 3 cents. Kroger has to be making a killing off this because you know people are buying food just to get the discount, even though they don't need the food. So actually it would be cheaper if they just got the gas. And the people who already spend over $100 every time dont realize it and just spend 2 or 3 times more. Anyways, this woman just realized that, hey she was spending her 10 cent discount. All she wanted was the machine to be reset so she didn't have to use it yet. I don't think she realized that she could just wait or cancel or something and it would reset itself. And if thats all she wanted she could have told the cashier lady to reset it, she messed up. BUt she HAD to argue. She tried to defend herself apologizing for wasting our time, by saying that she just wanted a couple dollars of gas and it would be stupid to waste this discount now, when she only gets less than a gallon. Fair enough, but who only gets $2 worth of gas? OK OK, I can understand if your almost out, and just want enough to get on down the road to that cheaper gas station, but tell me...where in g-town can you go to get gas cheaper than Kroger, especially with a 10 cent discount. Any other place is too far down the road. YOu'll need more than $2 to get there. So if thats not the care does she mean to tell me shes not low on gas and is just getting $2 to keep her car up at full or sometihng? People only get small amounts of gas at a time because they expect to come back again soon. $2 wont last a day usually. Do you just like going to the gas station? If you go to the station that often because you only get that small amount of gas you are probably losing money by actually putting forth the effort to come out to the station. Why bother? So if your not full and you don't have another station to go to you might as well fill it up now, b.c its not like your saving time by getting less b.c you waited 10 minutes to complain about it. Lets suppose you only ahve a couple bucks to spend anyways, and thats why you only get a little bit, and lets assume you are almost out so u have to get something...shouldn't you want to save 10 cents or however much you can so you can have that little bit more gas? Some Women are stupid. I mean people, yeah thats right...lol! Me and that other guy weren't buying, but we put on a courteous smile and let her think she wasn't stupid. Also, I arrived home right after Mom, just in time to to bring the groceries in. lol, that was my main point.
