This is ludicrous, I've been fueling for two hours!

Update:

(I'm long gone from that place BTW)

I figured I'd take my 10 there anyway. I wanted to make it to Morgantown WV but about 60 miles west of Hurricane in KY I'd been getting really sleepy, so I pulled into that little rest stop after Grayson. Turns out I went out cold for about 2 hours. Well I still had time on my 14 hour clock and more than enough drive time left but I couldn't figure out where I'd take my next break. Wheeling was the wrong direction and New Stanton was a stretch but do-able. Keyser's Ridge was an option but they weren't on the fuel list.

So playing it short and getting a splash and go at Hurricane was the call.

The minute I realized the pumps were DOA I figured I might as well spend the night right there. (Not on the fuel island of course, but the thought DID cross my mind. LOL)

Since 60 gallons gets you a shower and would be more than enough to get me over to Carlisle, I was determined to stay on that pump until it either gave up completely or I got my 60 gallons.

Ultimately it took 2.5 hours. I had 10 to burn anyway. Managed to still find a slot (though I thought about demanding a comp'd "reserved spot") and had a choice of local dining establishments (which is one of the few things that place has going for it.)

No need to chuff on some O/O's tanks while he sleeps. I am shocked, SHOCKED that some here would suggest such a thing!
*clutches pearls*

As long as I get my points and shower credit, and my MPG & idle time targets are met, the company pays for the fuel. Why steal from someone?

 

LOL!

Another UPDATE:

(Just when I thought I'd put this story to bed)

I got a call back from WV Dept of Weights & Measures. They're going to investigate that T/A!

Manager there is about to have a really bad day.

 

Possibly.

But they did call me, long distance. (Like that matters anymore)

I even told them, I don't usually go through that way and frankly didn't care one way or the other. They seemed to be more interested in assuring me they'd look into it.

So who really knows?
