Why does every fuel station staff member ask if you have any fuel?
You buy a tin of pop and quized about fuel.
Do i look like i have a memory loss problem?
Do we all need prompting? Then asked if i want a chocalate bar on offer.
Do i have Nectar points?
The question about fuel is due to the theft prevention as many of those who did it ( and been caught ) said that they were in a hurry and forgot (quite often they get in to the building so the staff do not suspect anything ) that they fueled up.
I think the real question here is… Who ■■■■■■■ cares if they ask 
If I go in and buy just something from the shop when I go to the till I always say that’s all thanks and they still ask if i have had fuel.
Bugs me to
My Mrs used to work in a petrol station, basically they ask because, if anyone drives off without paying, they’ve been asked so can’t resort to the line “Sorry officer, I completely forgot”
A new Co-op opened near me a few years ago affixed to a garage forecourt and people got wind of the fact that you could get fuel then move your car over to a parking space on the side of the forecourt then spend 20 minutes grocery shopping and then time you went to pay many people had used the same pump and the girls on the till just asked “did you have any fuel ?” Obviously "err no " followed.
This went on for a while and must have cost a fortune but there’s a different system now and it’s expensive so I don’t ever go in there for fuel any more.
My Mrs works in a fuel station and if the don’t ask people “forget” they have. Also they can get disciplinarys if they have too many drive off’s, because they didn’t ask. So basically they are just doing their job.

To be honest though, it gets on my ■■■■.
I think its a shell thing as they are only outfit that asks me if I would like anything else!
“Well yeah, if you’ve gota BJ going spare, that’ll be fine” 
Seriously though, if I want “anything else”, il ■■■■■■■ ask for it!!! 
I don’t wait to be asked, I just say ‘no fuel’ as I go to pay for items.
Just say ‘no fuel’ as you get to them, it’s saves them asking as it fulfills their asking/reminding thing.
What gets on my ■■■■ is muppets who stop at a filling station for a bar of bleedin’ chocolate 
What happened to the good old days when filling stations sold fuel, unlike today where people seem to do their weekly shopping■■? As for having to queue behind some forkwit that’s stopped for a coffee and a hamburger, that makes me think that mandatory euthanasia should be introduced…
If you want some chocolate, call at a paper shop and stop holding up people who’ve stopped for fuel.
Car drivers who use the lorry pumps as a car park.
Also (M40 Oxford services spring to mind) where you go to pay, and they say “we’re collecting for Children in Need (or whatever)”. So? I don’t think Keyfuels cards do donations.

Me too I pulled into tesco Chichester this morning parked at the back near the tanker pumps walked across the forecourt the girl at the till looked at me then when I got my bottle if coke and a cereal bar she says have you got any fuel? I looked at her and said yeah I filled up from the main pumps at the back she laughed and said it’s just a habit to keep asking so I guess that’s why.
Handy for ale these garage come supermarkets, just bugs me when they only have one member of staff on at peak times and the Q is out the door
I bought a can of energy drink.The lady on the till said it was cheaper to buy two cans instead of one.

lts thanks. Anyhow, think some of you guy’s are in the wrong job if you get so easily upset. Is it any wonder we are treated like morons :-B
I asked the young blonde for a coffee to drink inside.She then asks if i said to takeaway.
Even at Costalota ,they are trained to flog water bottles and flap jacks.Do you want a cake with that Sir ?
It is like being at your Gran’s over Christmas.
Do you want more to eat?
Would you like a Kit Kat,Ribena,Hula Hoops or a tin of Ambrosia rice pudding with your fuel Sir ?
I posted this some time back:
Some people just need reminding. Like me for instance. About 20 years ago I filled up a Transit at Scotch Corner garage, went in, picked up a pasty and just paid for the pasty. Completely forgot about the fuel til a nice letter from North Yorks police landed on my boss’ desk. Oops
Worked out ok tho. I just called in on my next trip and paid what I owed.
