People are ignorant to gas pumpers!

So I've been pumping gas this summer in the blistering 95 degree heat! This is what I've had to put up with this summer...

1) Young black punks who think their rap stars. They come into the gas station with their speakers THUMPING! I can't hear sh*t! It goes like this...

Me: Hello guys, can I help you.

Young black dude: 5 dollars. *I can barely hear this guy.

Me: Can you repeat that please?

YBD: "I SAID 5 DOLLARS." *he screams at me.

YBD's girlfriend: "Eww... that boy nasty. He pump gas that stupid foo."

Me: I walk up to the car.

YBD: He gives me a cocky look and hands me the money.

2) People in general are a**holes! I had this older lady who screamed at me this past Sunday.

Me: "Help ya"

Ladies son: "Fill it up!"

Me: "k"

Lady: She starts ramming the back door against my leg because she is trying to get out.

Lady: "I'm trying to get out!!! "MOVE IT, NOW" "MOVE"!!!!!!

3) Just last night I had these a**holes.

Me: "Hello can I help you?"

Guy: "Yea, give me a hundred dollars worth!!: *laughs.

Me: "K" *I was kidding

Guy's friend: "You big dummie, you were going to give him a hundred dollars worth of gas!! hahaaha, dummie!"

🙁
 
I graduate this fall. I'm working 88 hrs a week this summer.

I work midnight security (12-8am) Mon-Fri and I pump gas M,Tu, W (1-9pm) and F, Sa, Su (10-6pm).


😉
 
This is why I'm nice to the people at the gas station lol.

Cause somewhere along the way, you screw with em, they'll screw up the amount of gas you get 😀
 
Ah you pump gas in NJ. Here's my question - am I supposed to tip you? People like to say "Hey go to NJ to fill up on gas" whenever we're doing out of state trips. However, if I give a dollar tip, it tends to basically negate any savings I'd have if I filled up myself in NY.

Do you get a decent enough wage that tipping can be deemed optional? (Yes, I know it's already optional, but obviously certain places expect it more than others)
 
I don't even see places around here where you can have someone put for you.

It's all self serve around me.

Don't worry about tipping a gas attendant unless he wipes down your window and checks your oil. No one does this anymore to be honest.

It's the law in NJ. You aren't allowed to pump your own.

Oregon being the only other state in the union that prohibits self serve, if I'm not mistaken.

Why? 😕
 
I was just in NJ for a few days last week...between the gas stations not allowing people to pump their own gas and the stupid "jughandles", NJ is definitely a weird ass state 😉
