Current Events > You know what really grinds my gears? Slow gas pumps (Rant)

(+) Yeah! (+)

Seriously. Who the fuck wants this or asked for this? It blows. No one wants to sit out their vehicle all damn day pumping gas. I can go pump some gas with the intention of filling up but if it takes 5 seconds to pump 1 dollar of gas then Im peacing our at $10. Fuck slow gas pumps

Let the attendant know.
It's in the gas station's best interest to get customers through the line as quickly as possible.

im going to be real. Im not wasting my time doing that. Sure its the right thing to do but there are plenty of other gas stations and gas clerks probably dont care anyway so its most likely a waste of time

I hate all the prompts you have to go through at some pumps

pick type
pick payment
are you a rewards member
please enter zip code
please wait
pump ready to use now

I don't get me started on the pumps with screens that show commercials while I pump.

Blame thieves.
It used to be pump, go in and pay, leave. Now there's no choice but to pay at the pump in most places, due to all the pump-and-run assholes. Of course, this just created a huge opportunity for nerdy thieves to hack the pumps and steal from everyone else.

The convenience store chains don't like that either. Someone going inside may also buy a soda or a hotdog or something, but now there's no real need to go inside at all, unless that was the intent beforehand.
