So I drive to the gas station with my sisters to get 10 bucks worth of gas and get some crap they wanted at trget. I go into the place to pay with cash since I lack a credit card. Give the chick 10 bucks, go outside and start to work the pump. I do everything right, and still, no gas. Instead of going back and talking with the lady, I look at the gas thing, and there's a message on the little screen that says "Pay inside? Yes/No". SOOOOO I press yes, hoping that would get the pump working. YAAAAAAY IT WORKS. So I'm sittin there waiting for the gas to stop, which, if you pay with say, 10 bucks, the gas flow will automatically stop when the amount reaches 10 bucks. Well it didn't stop, and though I was watching the monitor in case, I was watching the GALLONS not the DOLLARS, and ended up racking up like 25 bucks worth of gas.
I thought about just driving off for like 3 seconds but then decided no since they probably have cameras and stuff and even though I was in the right (freaking pump is supposed to shut down at 10 bucks come on) I decided to go handle it. I borrowed 15 bucks from my sisters, went in, explained the situation to the lady I talked with earlier, then she says "LOL THIS IS MY FIRST DAY TEHE U GONNA HAVE TO TALK WITH THAT OTHER LADY OVER THERE". GREEEEEAT THAT EXPLAINS EVERYTHING.
Ended up paying for the extra gas and avoiding an argument.
This kind of stuff happens like every time I get to the gas pump. I've had the gas ERUPT LIKE A FOUNTAIN while the hose was inside the truck and the tank was NEAR EMPTY (that happened twice), I've had parallel parking issues (why everyone wants to fill up on gas at 9:30 is beyond my comprehension), and now thissssss.
And of course it has to be a 1993 ford F150 gas guzzler.
