John Awe shared his mind blowing experience:
Ever had this experience, guys?
You drive into a filling station. You tell the attendant,
how much you want to buy. He begins to sell and
then tops at a figure, say N1000 and returns the
nozzle to the pump. You then tell him, “I said N5000.”
He says “Sorry, I thought you said N1000.”
You shrug. He removes the pump again from the
pump, and the display is wiped off. He now proceeds
to sell to you the outstanding balance.
It doesn’t matter how loudly you shout the amount
you want to buy the first time, they still do it. I had
always wondered why they do that nonsense until last
Tuesday at Mobil by Otedola Bridge on the Lagos
Ibadan Exp Way.
I told the gentleman to fill the tank. He put the nozzle
into my car's fuel tank and stopped at N1000 and
returned the nozzle to the pump. I was annoyed and it
was obvious. I told him I wasn’t buying again. He
panicked and told me to relax and that he hadn’t sold
anything. He now proceeded to sell me exactly the
amount I wanted.
In essence, the N1000 that first appeared on the
display was phony. He panicked because he thought
if I decided to leave at that point when all he had sold
to me was hot air, I would have noticed once I looked
at my fuel gauge. And he thought it was better to
confess and have me quietly leave.
Apparently, when they want to play this trick, they
have a way of getting the pump to read to a
predetermined figure without selling anything. When
you protest that that is not the amount you want to
buy, they now proceed to sell the balance to you
properly. In essence, you have been shortchanged by
the amount they pretend to have first sold to you.
