As I have already said in previous threads, in the petrol station we have to authorise the pumps before customers can pump petrol. Sometimes, there will be a delay beyond our control. Today was such a time.
Basically, the entire world decided to come and buy petrol. (Clue: Money off petrol vouchers. Clearly invented by some malevolent being to torment petrol station workers. -.-) There was just two people in the shop at the time, due to one person being at lunch and the queue stretched out the doors. O_o
Cue rude woman. I was answering a query from a customer when I was shocked by a loud knocking on the window. I turned to see a woman gestulating and, red faced, bellowing "Turn on the ing pump!" I couldn't believe how rude she was; could she not see that the petrol station was stuffed full of customers? Besides, she'd left her car; we can't turn the pump on in those circumstances. So, I ignored her.
She banged again, this time shouting yet more cusses. I ignored her again; my collegue commented on how nasty this woman was, and so did several customers. In the end, rude woman seemed to grasp the fact that we weren't going to authorise the pump til she went back to her car, and did so. As soon as I could, seeing as I and my collegue were swamped, I authorised her petrol pump.
By the way, when she came in to pay, surprisingly she said nothing, just handed over her cash and left. O.o
