So i look over at the gas pump and she had filled her little Honda Civic with Diesel.  I wanted to laugh so hard but couldn't b/c it would have made her cry. She got it fixed but it cost $350. But oh my how funny. It was even funnier that she said she thought all gases were the same.   |
Reminds me of a story related to me by a friend who worked at a gas station.
Some girls in a Saturn pulled up to the diesel pump, after about a minute of confusion, they asked him (gas station friend) why the nozzle wouldn't fit into their car's gas tank - he just pointed to the sign on the pump, and told them it was diesel. Their response was to tell him that their saturn was a diesel, and to proceed with their attempt to pump diesel into their gas tank, one of them cupped her hands to try and catch all the diesel that was simply pouring onto the ground, and the other tried to get as much into the car as possible. Then they left. Who know's what happened a few miles down the road? Man, if more people in this country were literate, we'd not have problems like this.
