Title: Typical bone-head move by yours truly lol
Post by PollyPocket on Feb 7^th, 2008, 5:28pm

Lemme just say that I will be eternally grateful that y'all can't see how much I am blushing right now [smiley=bag.gif]

Went to the grocery store, got my stuff and paid cash. As soon as I got in the car I realized..... ya dork, you just spent all your cash and you're out of gas.........

and then the REAL issue hit..........

I've never used my credit card at a gas pump before and I have NO CLUE HOW. ... this is a joyful moment.

I had to ASK some guy to show me what to do! duh!!! I told him I rarely even use the card cuz I don't even like shopping.

His response was priceless: are you SURE you're a female? LOL. So there ya have it folks, a first for me and another embarrassing moment in the life and times of Jen the Dork. [smiley=ohjez.gif]

We always pay cash for our gas so I think I would be in the same situation. I know how to use the card everywhere else but a gas station? That I have never done. [smiley=bag.gif] I think I had better learn to do this, thanks Jen! [smiley=grin2.gif]

99% of my purchases are done with my bank debit/credit card. Easier to manage the finances. I just go on line and access my account.

Hubby will be thrilled you leraned to use the credit card. He'll sleep REAL well tonight.

hubby is the one that MADE me put the card in my wallet.

I don't even carry it.

I tried warning you about having that "brain" surgery, Jen. ;) ;;D

Don't feel bad. We've all pulled some no-brainers. Nothing to be embarassed about.

You are. Disconnect your brain and leave it at the door. You are about to become comfortably numb.

Don't feel stupid... you'll feel like a genius after I tell you what I did yesterday.

I had to drive from San Luis Obispo up to San Jose, about 250 miles, and I was running late. This was for a big meeting with Cisco, VMware, EYP MCF, and a couple other execs that are helping on this project I have in Boston. I was in an extreme hurry, but I needed to drop off dry cleaning and fill up the tank before hitting the road.

I didn't go to my normal gas station... the one I went to has fucking green pumps that dispense GAS. Green is for DIESEL, not Gas. I don't know what mf'n idiot decided to make a pump that is green but pumps gas. A S S holes. So, my beautiful planet killer (Ford Excursion 7.3 ltr DIESEL) got an $800 service yesterday to remove the gas I pumped into it.

You may feel stupid, but I are stoopid.
