Super User clayton86 Posted April 6, 2011 Super User Posted April 6, 2011 So yesterday I went to put gas in our car usualy only put $20 in at a time. so im sitting there pumping and its going painfuly slow just rediculous. so im looking at the pump after like 2 min and im only at .90 cents at this point im about to hang the pump up and leave, till i notice iv pumped 3gallons. They accidently set the pumps at .383 a gallon instead of 3.83 a gallon. the truck infront of me same thing .38cents a gallon. the gas station quickly filled up with people taking advantage of the screw up. i filled my tank for $6.22 for 16gallons so so so nice bout time i caught a break.

Super User Grey Wolf Posted April 6, 2011 Super User Posted April 6, 2011 Yeah some poor peon working stiff probably lost his job. Quote
Super User South FLA Posted April 6, 2011 Super User Posted April 6, 2011 I guess, I am old fashion in that I would have notified the gas station owner that the pumps aren't function correctly and that I just pumped X amount of gas for $XX.xx amount. If I were the business owner I would greatly appreciate it or even the employee responsible for the mistake. Food for thought. 2 Quote

Super User clayton86 Posted April 6, 2011 Author Super User Posted April 6, 2011 They knew it was only messed up for 5 min tops they couldent stop everyone from pumping but soon as ya stoped the pump shut down and was locked out it was just the lucky 6 of us that got there at the right time. Quote
Super User clayton86 Posted April 6, 2011 Author Super User Posted April 6, 2011 On another note I went there for lunch today befor makng a few casts in the lake and the same lady was there that set the pumps along with the owner im sure she still has her job shes been working there sense I was in school going on 10+ yrs her son graduated with me. So no one got fired im sure if they were gonna get fired they would of been now. Quote
