Winning The War At The Pump

Gas prices have been kicking all of our asses for way too long now. That’s no news. And at this stage in the game there still appears to be no end in sight.

But, today…today, I won a little back for the home team.

This is what took place…

I brought in a small fistful of cash to get the needle off the ‘E’ and handed it to the gas attendant.

“$40 on 6″.

He nods. I say thank you. I then proceed to halfway fill up my tank.

After, I don’t know, thirty seconds, the nozzle clicks and I stroll back to pull out and hang up the apparatus.

And that’s when I saw it…

$40.01

That’s right mother fuckers. I got an extra cent out of you. Take that Big Oil, Shell, Chevron, Exon. All you sick mother fuckers. Try balancing your numbers now with this .01 figure fucking everything up. Ha. Time is money and you will be spending days, no weeks, trying to sort this anomaly out.

Enjoy assholes.

And by the way, the ‘Please See Attendant” flashing light after this transaction only increased my enjoyment as I sped away.
