Thirty seconds to closing!

[Lace Neil Singer]

This SC rolled up after we closed. She did the usual thing of driving up to the cones, then doubling back and going in the back. I was locking the pumps up when she shouted at me.

"Excuse me, it's not ten o'clock yet!" she screamed. "There's thirty seconds yet!"

Um, what? Firstly, her timing was wrong. It was exactly one minute past ten by store time, which is what we go by, not Customer Standard Time. Second, thirty seconds? What kind of moron thinks that matters?

I just told her that we were closed and she drove off in a huff.

Customer standard time.

We get the same thing at my pizza place a LOT. Sorry the POS server AND our wall clock (not to mention ALL our cell phones) are set by the government time signal SOOOOOOO our time is the correct time not your imagined time

Don't think I've seen one of those - is it a 4x4?

Maybe it was a hoff if so that's a black trans am with a red light on the front.

"Well, Ma'am, you'd better hurry, as you now have 24 seconds to pull up your car, get out, insert the pump, and begin fueling before the pumps shut down for the night. If you're lucky, you may be able to get a whole gallon in there!"

The Angry Bartender recently had a thread where bartenders were bitching about the idiots that argue about last call.

And it reminded me of one of the great things about working day shift......

I wonder if they make them large enough for a 5'8" man....

Perhaps you should look up the Count for that kind of customized ride . .

I visualize Jester's ride as being by Big Daddy Roth...

[Lace Neil Singer]

What I wanted to say, but didn't, was that our exchange took over thirty seconds anyway so even if her timing had been right, by the time we'd finished, it would have been closing anyway. XD But since when did logic ever feature in an encounter with an SC?

There's over the top, there's way over the top, there's utterly ridiculously over the top....and then there's THAT thing!

I just meant an adult SIZED one. Don't need a freakin' engine!

But it IS cool to know they make such a thing.

But only topping out at 50mph?

Not terribly far off...it's the wrong color.
