| 579339 | 2007-08-11 04:31:00 | Ahh yes, I'll never remember the time when, err, where was I, oh yes I was putting the cat out, not that I'd ever set a cat on fire. I had some onions tied to my belt, it was the style at the time. Gas bottles used to be much bigger in my day, big I tell ya. So big we used to run around them shouting "where's my fish" or somthing like that, can't be sure these days what fish were but they were big I tell ya so big that................zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz Wake up Jack, you missed the best bit... and you might want to change the medication before they let you out again :thumbs: |

| 579341 | 2007-08-11 05:35:00 | Service at servce stations isn't too bad these days. I go to the local BP (only for AA reward points mind you). One of the women there is a right cow, but all the rest of the staff are generally great and easy to get along with. I guess ya find that whereever you go However, on the flip side, a lot of the older generation are straight out ignorant and downright rude. You get these people in mobility scooters who think they own the footpath, or old people behind shopping trolleys who think they own the place and will smack you in the back of the ankles with the trolley just so that you'll move (if you haven't seen them). I was bought up to respect the older generation, but when they pull this crap, why should I? |

| 579343 | 2007-08-11 06:08:00 | I must say the service at most of the petrol stations here in Auckland is shocking. They won't give you a hand with anything unless you specifically ask. Gone are the days when they would always put the petrol in for you and give your windscreen a scrub. | roddy_boy (4115) | ||
| 579344 | 2007-08-11 07:14:00 | Interesting. The service at my local BP is more than I want - I am almost always approached by a forecourt attendant to pump petrol. Unfortunately, I almost always prefer to do it myself. When I politely decline their help for the petrol, my windscreen gets washed... :thumbs: And I really only prefer to buy there because it local (although there is a Shell and a Mobil right across the road) but mainly because of the ANZ QANTAS Visa airpoints... |

When I politely decline their help, I usually get looked at as if I'm gearing up to do a runner and not pay! Always pump my own gas...must be a male thing....but sometimes these attendants get so pissy or cop an attitude when I say "no thanks, I enjoy doing it". |

I followed them into the suburbs coz there was gonna be some SERIOUS road-rage, but they headed off into places I didn't know, and I figured they were unlikely to give me directions after our little chat....:p No cops for miles, but do 108 on the Foxton/Himitangi Straight, and they're bloody everywhere! As you can tell, it was a fun drive!! :lol: :lol: |
