Hot Maneuver

I've gone to this particular gas station by my house a few times. Every time I go, the gas attendant plays with my card (well, with me). He starts to give it back to me, I try to grab it, and he takes it away! "Ooo too slow! Ok, I geeeve it back now...Ooooo no! EHEHHEHEHE...Ok, ok, I geeeve it back this time...Oooooo eheheheheeh...I am jost keeeding wit you". Must admit, I do think it's funny, because he seems to be having a grand ol' time here.

Today, I went to get gas during the day (had to take an earlier lunch at work, due to a meeting), and there was a different attendant. I'm thinking, o, no takesies-backsies this time.

I'm behind this SUV, waiting for the driver to leave, meanwhile, another car is leaving on the other side. The attendant signals for me to go around. The fuel door cover is not on the same side, so I backed up, drove around the car in front of me, and then reversed until I got to the pump all in like 5 seconds. Managed not to run over the attendant, cool beans to me.

They must have gone to the same school of humor, because, as I "roll down" the window, he goes "yoooo are verry booteefool driverrr" while he gestures a little sign of approval (you know, the indicator finger and thumb together, with a back and forth motion, elevated to the chin, and half-puckered lips). I'm glad I get to impress people with my skills.
