I better write this experience before I forgot. This happened recently when I ran out of petrol just a Kilometer away from the nearest Shell Station. Alright, I admit, I am using Shell petrol. Well, to be honest I want the bonuslink points that come with it. Hey, who said I cannot right? In fact I have many wonderful great items exchanged in the past years. I am a loyalist. Once I got hooked to certain thing, I usually stuck with it forever. Disclaimer here, I am not promoting Shell as if I got paid to say it. No. None and zero. I wish Shell marketing personnel Google this and realized I am actually promoting them and that I am worthy of at least RM50 for the statement here.

Oh my, I forgot about the whole story already why I want to write this post. Oh ya, about the out of petrol thing. You see, to cut thing short, I walked to this “Shell station” again to buy petrol and said to the ‘petrol attendant’ that I wish to buy a RM5 worth of petrol and I want it to be transferred inside my Pepsi 1.5litre bottle.

Guess what the man said, “Sorry ah, you cannot use this type of bottle to put the petrol. You need a proper transfer tank to do it”.
I was like, what!?! “Alright,” I said, “So does your station has this so called tank to sell so I can use it”, I ask.

The man said, “Sorry again ah. Nope. We do not have that for sell here”.

At this time I already reaching my boiling point but somehow I managed to fake a smile and ask politely again, “Hmm, can I use my water bottle tupperware to fill it? After all, I’m not asking many. Will it be okay?”

Guess what the man said again … “Sorry, cannot! You need proper tank to transfer the petrol.”

I said while almost want to slap the person kind of action here, “So, how? Can you help me to find the tank or anything so I can just walk back to my car. ”

Can you guess what the man said after that? He said this, “Sorry that is your problem boss. We do not have the tank here. You have to find yourself. We cannot help you.”

Wahhhh!!! After all the “Sorries”, four times you know and still I cannot get my petrol. I am paying them you know. I want to curse also cannot here. After all, you all read up to here and already at 435 words, you think I want go on meh… crazy. It’s 5:50am already you know. So better stop now or at least this post. OK, its 460 words. Stop.

*** Attention, Shell people – please teach your staff manners and please keep the gallon tank thing ready in you station. This is not a true story, but I think i gotcha there
