Odd Things I've Witnessed Working At A Gas Station
Working at a gas station makes me see a little or really random and bizarre things. So here is a list of the oddest things, in no particular order.
1.) A man entering his car wash code into the box and ignoring the booming voice telling him to put his car in neutral, gunning it through the wash. He, obviously, wanted a new code.
2.) People pumping gas and smoking with the same hand.
3.) A man too drunk to use a phone book wanting me to call him an escort service. Eventually the police came and he was arrested.
4.) More than one person just slipping the nozzle out of his gas tank and spilling gas all over the ground.
5.) Someone getting their credit card stuck in the card reader on the pumps.
6.) A man giving me his hotel key rather than his credit card.
7.) A drunk dropping $50 in front of the counter, for me to find 45 minutes later.
8.) When the pump is broken we bag the nozzles. I saw a man poke a hole in the bag and try and use the nozzle.
9.) I was working third shift and at about quarter to six in the morning this guy comes in. He had gotten some gas and went to the cooler in the back to get something to drink. I look back and he has white pants, but not just white pants, I realize that they are see-through white pants. And he isn't wearing any underwear. He turns around and, well, let's just say he greeted me. This, by far, will be the most disturbing thing I will ever see.
10.) This kid comes in talking to his friend about his mother and her boyfriend/husband, whatever. He was talking about how she used to be this big feminist and now the guy is her master and all of this other stuff. After he walks out the door the guy I was working with and I were just like, your mom's a freak, get over it. Then my co-worker asked if she had a website.
11.)Some girl telling me that she's going to get me fired for IDing her. *Edit* She apologized at a later date, which is even more bizarre!
12.)Some guy asking if he had a bathroom and using it, then coming back two hours or so later asking the same question, and using our bathroom again.
13.)A couple going in the bathroom together then coming out smiling. People, it is a GAS STATION BATHROOM! Ick.
14.)A guy and a girl came in and the girl was up front looking at something and the guy was in the back by the beer. He practically was yelling when he asked her what kind of beer she wanted, they went back and forth for a minute. He came up to the register with the beer and she came up with a package of cigarillos, I asked for both of their IDs, she suddenly didn't have one even though she was planning on buying IDs and he had just turned 21. They wondered why I wouldn't sell them the beer.
