So

So yesterday at work I had to shut down half of the gas station I tested. I wanted a nice easy day so I picked a station that opened with all new pumps 2 years ago. As always the crap hits the fan. Half the meters failed and I had to shut them down on a busy weekend of gas purchasing. Oh Jay can't I just keep them operating and call a service company after the holiday? No you are short selling gas to people by over a 1/2 a gallon every 5 gallons. So now he sits with half the meters shut down. At the end he took it pretty good considering he is just lost half his pump usage for the weekend or longer.

The next funny thing that happened yesterday was a guy on his new Harley. I was parked in an industrial park by the airport entering the data from closing the gas pumps and a guy drives by on his new Sportster turns around and then tries to turn into the drive way of said work place. He proceeded to fall over and lay the bike down. Picking it up he then dropped it over to the other side. In the process he broke both rear directionals off, both ends of the clutch and brake levers. He tossed his glasses on the ground and yelled F%$& breaking those too. He tried to start the bike and then stalled it and it fell over once more. He parked it and ran inside and a friend came out and the both of them assessed the damage to his new broken ride. Really to funny as I just sat there and watched it all. The LAF plates were still on it and he just did a couple of 100 dollars damage. I had to laugh but fell sorry for the guy at the same time. Time to go and ride. Later..

No way. I get calls all the time and they are usaully not verified. This one would had been if you pumped gas with out any one using the other side. But when some one did the gas meters failed. Caught it really by accident. But found and will be fixed. Thank your friend.
