Petrol pump power craziness!!

[Brummmie]

This morning went to feed her habit for Superunleaded at the Local Tescos, turns out so had everyone else in south Birmingham, so queing out onto the road, gauge is hanging out the passenger door so have to endure...

Luckily one of the pumps has only Super available, so no one wants it, result.
I pop the boot lid up and insert nozzle, keep pressing the trigger..no fuel, so re place in the holster, press, press still no fuel.
This Tesco sweatshirt clad women then stomps up to me and demands i close the boot lid before she will give me any fuel!!
My reply "If you can suggest another way to fill it up, then no problem"
pointing at the hole..."oh" she replies.

Lots of people laughing and pointing at her

I've had the same thing happen as well - I quite enjoy it, they come running out in Adolf H mode, all officous and pompous, then and walk away feeling very stupid. It's especially good when it's a crowded forecourt

I've had that at sainsbury's, only they tannoyed it across a busy forecourt.

When I went in to explain she said "oh I thought you were filling cans"

Had the same at the BP northbound on the A3, only once though in 4 yrs. Stood there for ages waiting for the pump to come on, guy eventually came out to see what I was up to. There was some tittering as he walked back...

[boss1uk]

yep had that to. Must say it was worth the delay just to see guys face after he had come out to tell me off...

Another one today..

Tried to fill up my MX bike while it is in the van, they said i have to be touching the floor when i put petrol in, because of static!!!!

FFS!!
