As I was taking my husband to work tonight the gas light came on in the car. Not something new! That hose beast has reared its ugly head before so it was no biggie. I dropped of Nick and planned on getting gas on the way home. So I stop at the first gas station that was out of the ghetto hood area that Nick was working in tonight. I pull up to the first pump and it has signs on all the buttons saying out of order. No problem or so I thought. I go on to the next pump and the same thing. Next pump- the same thing! All eight pumps were out of order. Seriously! I am less than thrilled! What kind of gas station doesn't have a single working pump?! A gas station with no working pumps is a convenience store. Or should I say inconvenient store? I look over and see that it is one of those gas stations where you have to talk to the cashier through 4 inches of plated bullet- proof glass. (maybe I didn't drive far enough out of the ghetto! HAHA!) Is it possible that maybe they wouldn't need that if the pumps worked? I am not saying that I would shoot the place up but I am not the only person that drove around that place in the ten or so minutes I was there. Some pretty shady characters!
Am I being a bit dramatic? YES! But it was very annoying for a young mother who has two kids and is almost out of gas in a potentially dangerous area! Well maybe not potentially all that dangerous. Maybe it was just annoying..... that could be it.
