Road Rage..

The other day, I stopped at a gas station near my house.. I pulled in, pumped my gas and attempted to get out of there as fast as I could.. I try to do most things quickly, as I am a very important person; I have things to do and places to go..

I pulled forward to the exit, and all of the sudden, a guy in a SUV pulls in, right in front of my car, stopping diagonally, blocking the entire exit/entrance..

I'm mad.. He makes no attempt to pull forward, and I can see that he is laughing at my frustration.. I slam my car into park and jump out of my car.. I find that most people are intimidated by a hefty, obviously irate girl, literally jumping out of her car wanting confrontation..

I get out, throwing my hands around screaming "what??!!" with every step I take.. He rolls his window down, and the following argument ensues..

Me: "What seems to be the problem?? Why won't you pull forward??"

Him: *smiling* "You think I can pull forward??"

Me: "I don't see why not.. I've left you plenty of room.. If you are waiting for the next pump, you could at least pull in and not block the entrance/ exit.."

Him: "If you want me to move, make me.."

Me: "I'm not going to physically make you move sir, I'm just letting you know that I think whatever point you are trying to make, is idiotic.."

Him: "Maybe I can't move, maybe I ran out of gas.."

Me: *stares blankly* long pause *blinks* "Oh, I'm sorry then, do you need a push??"

Him: *laughing* "Yeah, that would be great.."

Me: *Pushing with all my might, sliding around on the pavement in my cowboy boots*
"Gaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaauuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuurrrrrrrruuuuhhhhhhhhhhhhhh!! Sir, I can't move you.."

Then, the guy at a pump, one that has been observing the entire debacle, comes over and helps me push.. We got him to the pump, and I apologized again for yelling at him, explaining that people literally pull in front of me and do similar things to me on a weekly basis.. He laughed some, and said, at no point was he intentionally messing with me..

I took this opportunity to explain to him that his car has a gas light and that when it turns on, it's generally best NOT to ignore it and to get gas as soon as possible..

I told him that I hoped his day got better, and I drove the rest of the way to work smiling..

The End..
