Gas station I go to, just told me today, doesn't matter how long I have been getting my gas there, I have to pay with cash before I fill up. He said he doesn't make the rules. Too many are driving off without paying. I paid $4.14 today. People are becoming hostile at the stations. There were eight pumps working and one person pulled away other one backing up to get it and another person came from opposite side and wouldn't let her back into it. They both sat there. Finally the person at the pump got out and said that if the person who backed up didn't move he wouldn't be able to get out. She told him,'get your gas and when you are finished, I will take your place'. Wasn't too nice either. I lef t before I found out if she took his place or not. it is just wild everytime I try to get the gas. This is before 11AM.
The government just never prepared for this to happen. Instead of substituting different ways of transportation they just let this happen. My son drives scooter plus when weather nice rides his bike but he tells me people just can't go by without making some kind of statement or honking the horn. He can't walk as his work is more than 25 miles one way. People should try to think of alternative ways to get to work. otherwise if weather bad he takes the metro link. Public transportation is still around.
