I specifically try to park at a pump, regardless if I'm getting gas or not.


This is why we can’t have nice things.

I’m old and when i stop to get fuel I usually have to pee really bad and I can’t wait too long. I start the pump and go inside. I pee, buy another cup of coffee and by the time i get out the pump is usually still running. The big Diesel SUV takes a lot of fuel. I say oh crap another $110, put a BIDEN DID THIS sticker on the pump and leave. Do I still get a frick you? Do i get a pass for abhorring Biden?

If you are being inconvienced by someone going inside for 2 min after filling up then 1 of a few things has already occured:

1)You knew you needed gas and waited until the last minute

2) You are running late for something that you should have left earlier for

3) You picked a gas station that was too busy. Drive one more block and not wait.

None of these 3 are my problem as the person who paid to fill up.



Well first off it's never and I repeat NEVER just two minutes...lol. And all that other shite you made up is just that.

And you're not paying to fill up. There's no fee attached to that. You just don't care who you inconvenience throughout your day because me, me, me. That's cool too man. Like I said, do you but don't try and paint your inconsideration as my fault because it gives you some slight justification for being asshoe all day every day.

Yea it is 2 minutes. I go get a can of snuff and I'm on my way. It isn't my fault you are on a time crunch. Plan out better. It isn't my job to keep you on schedule.

My own personal time situation is completely irrelevant. The action of leaving your car at a pump while you are inside is an a-hole move. Something I would expect out of a selfish Gen Z’er.

I have my doubts you can guarantee 2 minutes every time you go in.

You're also assuming it's only an issue of someone running late. People's time is valuable regardless. It's actually less time for you to get in your car, start it, park it, and get out again than it is for you to walk from the pump to the door.

Well I'm not going to do it if its busy af. But when have you been to a gas station with people waiting in line in the last year?

The blanket statement that anyone that goes inside after pumping has is an a-hole is ridiculous. And if you see people waiting and don't have time to wait, go to a less busy gas station.

I go inside while it’s pumping, but I’m great at multitasking!

Blanket statement is a little much for sure. The situation varies. There's been times all the parking spots are full for people solely going in the store, so even I'll stay at the pump under those circumstances if I need to go in.

I leave my car at the pump all of the time if it isn't busy. If it is, then I'll pull into a spot. Most likely if I have to wait to pump gas, then I'm not going into that store anyway.

The company pays for my gas and all they ask for is a receipt. I don’t feel like that’s a bad trade off.

I do this in a Prius, try to block the first and second pump. I don't actually buy any gas.
