Yes, we are finally getting pay at pump. But the news has created a whole group of SCs. This is how it goes. SC comes into the kiosk, says, "Well, you're getting pay at pump, right?" Colleague confirms this, thinking, "That's what the sign says." SC then says, in a mean, smirking voice crammed with schadenfreude, "Then you'll be losing your jobs soon!" *titter*
First of all, do you always find the idea of a person losing their jobs funny? What if it happened to you, your spouse or your kids? Bet you wouldn't be laughing then. Second, your assumption is bullshit. The paperwork, like delivery certificates, doesn't do itself, and we don't have a posse of helpful elves to stock the shop, sign for deliveries, answer the phone, order stuff etc. Not to mention the fact that not everyone will be able to use the new system. Roughly half of our customers are people who use fuel cards or cash; they will have to come inside and pay. Not to mention all the people who want to buy tobacco products, groceries and car care.
It's really getting on my and my colleagues' wick, this type of SC. I just wish that these people could just keep their traps shut for once in their lives.
