i know gas stations where you put the gas in and it fill them selfs, it jumps off when full. so what’s the fail?

Sometimes gas stations have to have regulatory tests done for ecological purposes. They usually try to limit lost revenue of shutting down an entire site by using these nozzle covers and testing just the premium, etc. Then some moron shows up and does this, activating a turbine that blows gas all over the poor bastard who has it all apart at the other end of the lot. I’ve seen someone pull up to a dispenser that was loaded onto a pallet and moved away from the pump islands and try to get fuel. unreal.

apparently the yellow bag thing means that the pump is out of fuel. so, the fail is supposedly that he’s stuck it in the tank not realizing he’s not getting any petrol. pity you can’t actually read the text on the yellow thing.

must be a u.s. thing. i had to read through some of this crap to figure it out because we don’t have those things here and i didn’t get it either. if you’re going to take a picture that is dependent on a “sign” of some sort, at least have the decency to make it high-res enough to be readable. i’ve had to blow up the pic to about 300% and can just make it out on the one on the left, although that’s mostly just the words “out of”.

in the end, it wasn’t worth it anyway.

HAHAHA that guy is a loser. I love how he is on his bluetooth headset…he’s probably not paying attention to anything except his stupid converstaion and the delusions he has about how awesome he thinks he is.

i heard that this kind of gasoline is very cheap, but it doesn’t get a car very far down the road after the fill up.

I bet the pump was actually working and the dumbass gas station left those baggies on. They did that here in FL when the hurricanes came through and everyone freaked out and were draining the gas stations. Even though there was still plenty gas left, they put bags over the pumps to deter people from even trying. It worked!

Remind me to never pull up to the pump while you’re there. *Walks away from Hollywood-like explosion.*

Given the automatic cut-offs, I don’t see that happening with any pump installed in the last 30 years or so.

For those of us who have ever thrown lit matches down the sounding tubes, I have to say that you are just fear-mongering with o real understanding.
Maybe you watched too many Hollywood explosions?

By: jerv

jerv — Fri, 09 Oct 2009 09:59:21 +0000

True. I have pulled up to *many* a pump with s sign/bag over the 87-octane nozzle that pumped mid-grade and premium just fine.

yeah not that dumb, when there is cheaper petrol they put the signs up sometimes to limit how many customers get petrol at a time therefore selling less untill the price goes up.

The real fail here is who the heck goes to a gas station, takes picture of a guy pumping gas with a “do not use” sign, then come on failblog to post it?

As a gas station worker, I can certify that this isn’t a rare occurence. People absolutely refuse to read/notice anything. Then they like to bitch that “blah” isn’t working and you should put up signs if they’re down, when there are two signs on the pump, a bag on the nozzle, and a sign on each door.

i work at a gas station. i do not consider myself to be a failure, nor do i consider any of my co-workers or the thousands of other gas station attendants in this country (or anywhere else) to be such.
and don’t try to play it off as a joke about the fact that he works there and still can’t figure out what the yellow bag means, because we both know that’s not what you were going for.
the real fail is you being an elitist ass. maybe you aren’t an elitist ass most of the time, i don’t know you, but your comment is a fail.

munch is right, we don’t like it when you talk on the phone while fueling.
it is a myth that cell phone use will blow up your car, but it’s still not good practice. people on cell phones are not paying attention to what they are doing. they often over-pump and gas goes all over the place, or they only have a ten with them, but -oops!- they just pumped 27 dollars worth of gas. it happens all the time.

thank you! i work at a gas station and you wouldn’t believe the moronic things customers say about gas prices, the pumps, and every other possible thing we have.
my absolute favorite is the people who disregard the “it is against federal law to” posters on every stinkin’ pump, and get mad when we stop the pump.
no, your 5 year old cannot pump your gas.
no, you can’t pump kerosene into that milk jug.
yes, you do have to put that cigarette out.
yes, you do have to pay for all that gas all over the side of your car and in that big puddle on the ground under it. it says right on the pump not to leave it unattended. you’re lucky the fire department doesn’t charge you for the time they spend cleaning it up.

I heartily agree, there are too many studies that show homeschooled children educationally outperform public schooled children by such a large margin, it’s laughable to think anyone could look at them as inferior; if they were in public school, there’y have to draw straws to see who’d be valedictorian.

Besides, most of the homeschoolers I’ve met actually do something worthwhile with their lives, not turn into hipster, SUV-driving, earphone-wearing douchebags who couldn’t find their way out of a plastic bag.
