I think this was only slightly sucky, but sucky nonetheless. I pulled up to a pump, and only after I was there, did I notice that there was a plastic gasoline container left on the island of the pump. I figured someone must have forgotten it, or it was broken and they just left it behind.
It turned out to belong to the man I passed in the parking lot as I walked into the store to prepay. So I waited around in the store and kept an eye out while he pumped his gas before I asked for a prepay on the same pump. I was thinking "Ah well, maybe he ran out. Or it's for a lawnmower and he doesn't have transportation and had to walk all the way here in the rain, poor guy."
But then he walked over to where a pickup truck was parked in front of the store and drove off. Why not just pull up to the pump?
I just thought it was stupid and annoying.

, I was tailgated the entire way to the gas station by a delivery truck. He tailgated me the whole exit ramp and nearly ran me off the road trying to pass me on the right.
