Hah. This is precious. I'm still laughing. I'll probably have an update tomorrow for this but I sure as hell hope this makes someone smile because I'm still raging over it.
We have a repeat offender. White Jeep Grand Cherokee. There's a picture from the security cam that has the Jeep with the lights on and the door open. Says "Keep an Eye Out" under it in dark Sharpie letters. Okay, Mr. Manager, keeping an eye out. Well then, guess who's on pump one? Mr. White Jeep Grand Cherokee with the Lights On and the Door Open. I walk outside toward that pump. Kid panicks. Hangs up the pump and walks in to pay for his 5.06 in gas. I walk around the pump without pausing and I memorize the license plate number (I'm so good at this I can just walk around a car, no pause, nothing. Smooth operator.) So I walk in after the kid. I take the picture of the car down and write the information down on it.
Note: The picture is black and white, grainy, and at least six feet from the eyes of any customer. The Jeep on it is about the size of a half dollar. You have to look at it pretty close to see it's a Jeep Grand Cherokee but to gas station workers who see cars all day, we know.
Kid pays and leaves. Half an hour later HIS MOTHER calls. She starts railing CW about some alleged picture we took of HER car's license plate number. There is no such picture. I don't NEED a picture to remember a plate number, lady. THEN she asks us why there is a picture of HER CAR behind the registers.
Ahem...excuse me? First off, the kid had to have ASSUMED that he was caught and it was a picture of HIS MOTHER'S CAR to have said that. (THERE IS NO WAY HE COULD HAVE SEEN THE PICTURE UP CLOSE ENOUGH TO SEE IT.) And...if it IS her car. If she's SURE that THAT JEEP GRAND CHEROKEE is HER CAR. Well Ma'am...you owe us 74 dollars from the last drive off. Merry Christmas.
She's supposedly going to call my manager to ask him about it. Guess who's going to be there tomorrow morning as well?
Good luck, sweetheart. I'm onto you.
