Default Is it really that difficult to pump gas...

Rant of the day-

One thing I can't stand about NJ is that you can't pump your own gas and I am more the happy to do so, why-

Fisrt I don't need some fool dripping gas down the side of my car, thanks I'd like to keep my paint on my car!!

Second I just love it when they take off the gas cap and let it fall and slap against the side of my car, the hook on the lid is there so you can hang the gas cap with out slapping down againnst the side of my car.

1st mod, cut the Fing plasitc lne that attaches the gas cap to my car so it no longer gets to smack up against the side of my car.

I worked at a gas station when I was a kid and I can't ever remember being that stupid.

I almost just killed a kid at my local Sunoco station, I was lucky enough to get gas on the side of my car and have the cap slap against the side of my car, a-hole.

That would make me move! Yeah, since it's not their car, they couldn't care less.

Default why not get out and get the cap ready for him? Then have a rag you drape over the edge of the car

you might look alittle ****, but who cares it might teach him to be better with all guests.

If you get out of the car and pay and watch them... they tend to be more careful!

Default Actually, the 76 station next your work is really good about this...

but, I have always used Chevron only in my cars. The one by my work sucks but has some of the lowest prices in the State.
