Had a most unusual prank played on me Wednesday.
Stopped to gas the company van.
Simple. Just like always.
Carded the pump and punched in all the numbers.
Simple. Just like always.
Lifted the nozzle and pressed the 87 octane button.
Simple. Just like always.
I opened the little door to take off my gas cap and realized when the nozzle started spraying gas on the side of the van that some jackass had latched the lever on the nozzle wide open.
It was latched full on and I couldn't get it to unlatch without fighting with it while it was pouring gas everywhere. (fortunately not on me)
Just a random thought:
Check that little latch on the nozzle handle before punching the '87' button on the pump.
I'm hoping in my heart of hearts that someone prepaid for $10 worth of gas, latched it on, and just hung it up after the pump stopped at 10.
Just don't be the next guy that turns the pump on
