    I've got to rant on this

    I am so pissed off right now and I need your sympathy. What is it with people anymore? Can't they think for themselves. We are having a blizzard right now. I am going to fill my car and the card reader is frozen and not reading. So I go into the station and told the clerk the car reader on number 6 pump is not working can you authorize the pump for me. "No sir, all our pumps are card or pre-pay" I told her I am aware of that here is my card, authorize pump 6 for me. Again it was "No sir, all of our pumps are card or pre-pay". Again I said I know, here is my card. Then she says how much cash am I putting to pump 6? I told her it needs to go on this card, I don't carry cash. Then she says to the people behind me in line. "You guys know what I am telling this guy, right?" I told her "screw it" I'll skip gas then. She says "Well! Have a nice day anyway"

    So I drive 10 feet to the next pump, run my card, fill gas and leave. Small town, 2 gas stations, I wasn't going to drive to the other one unless necessary.

    My point is we are one brain dead society. Pretty much anyone under 30 has no ability to think.
    I've proved mathematics wrong. 1 + 1 doesn't always equal 2.........

    Could be poor training as well.

        It was a good looking gal probably around early 20's, long hair dyed red and purple with piercings in nose and ears. Brain dead though.
