Background: Someone either didn't call in our fuel numbers or Sandy caused a shortage at our delivery plant. Either way our gas station ended up running out of fuel on Sunday. So to combat this problem my boss decided to shut down the pumps, turn off the canopy lights and the sign. The only thing open was the towing and the mini mart which has the brightest lights known to man.
You think this would have been an obvious sign.
One regular customer, who is known for their elevator not going to the top floor because of more then recreational drug use, pulled in to the gas pumps. He rolled up to the first one and then the second one, after which he got out and looked at me in the store. I had to go outside at this point and explain to him that we were out of fuel because he picked up the pump and stuck it in his car.
The lights are off and there are signs at this point on every pump saying we are out of fuel.
"Oh, I guess I'll go somewhere else then?"
