Earlier this week I questioned whether or not a Petro Canada station was the best place to stop. After today's experience at Chevron, I admit I was wrong. You're much better off at 7-11/Petro Canada than here.
I'm not blaming the attendant for the mishap with my credit card or my credit union. But he could've shown more empathy towards me and realized, the guy is from another country with limited cash on him. I'll bet he's worried. Even a sympathetic "Don't worry, it'll get straightened out." Would've been nice.
Instead I got threats of him notifying police and blocking my car in it's place. He even wanted to confiscate my driver's license.
Three things happened. Within 20 minutes of finding out my card was locked, my cousin Jerry showed up with $75 cash (and proceeded to verbally rip this fellow a new ass). Then my credit union called to inform me the lock on my card was lifted...charge your little heart out. Lastly, we walked out of Mr. Asshat's mart leaving roughly $50 of yummies on his counter for him to restock. Including frozen cokes.
It doesn't matter to me what they charge for gas or the snacks because I have no respect for this place. I'm surprised we were actually allowed to use the bathroom, which by the way was a disgusting nightmare. Since we've already gassed up, we're headed toward the Red Apple to check out the snacks. Then taking Jerry to lunch! 09/22 read more
