Does anyone else out there have a problem filling up with petrol?

Question

there are two petrol pumps and you are the third in line. The person at the first pump decides that she wants to do her weeks shopping. She queues for everything and pays then on her way out decides to buy a plant and goes back and queues again. 25 minutes waiting for this woman to get off the flaming pump. If you need to shop do it in the super market not at the flaming petrol station. What is wrong with people that I am kept waiting for a lady to decide whether she is going to drink Merlot or Pinot Noir with her dinner tonight whilst I wait patiently to fill up my damn car. You supermarket people out there pleae try to lay on enough parking spaces so stupid people doing their shopping can get off the flaming pumps.

Answer 1

........and just as you think she is ready to pull off she gets this ritual thingy going on shuffle about fasten seat belt jiggle jiggle turns the key readjusts every thing then pulls off without looking

Answer 2

That would be aggravating. It is not usually a problem here-most filling stations have a "pay at the pump" feature.

Answer 3

whats worse if the garage has spaces for people to park at for non petrol purchases yet they still park at the pumps

Answer 4

And then, what do they do for 15 minutes when they get back in their car? How long does it take to put your bleeping seat belt back on and start your engine!

I share your dispair!

Answer 5

i avoid supermarket filling stations for that reason and go to my local garage where you don't even have to get out of your car because they fill it for you

Answer 6

I agree. I hate that too. Get your gas then move your car then shop..

Answer 7

I applaud you! Yes, agreed.
