A typical marshall barrett story: Stewart's Gas in Troy, NY

  • fidget3600: my dad was down at the apartments cleaning
  • fidget3600: and my mom said she was going to stop there after work so that he could buy gas for her cause she didnt have any money
  • fidget3600: so the gas pump wasnt allowing cards
  • fidget3600: so he filled it up and went inside
  • fidget3600: he handed them his card, they said their machine is down and they are only taking cash
  • fidget3600: he said he didn't have any cash, they said ok, you need to leave us your license and bring us cash by 11pm
  • fidget3600: he said well banks dont open till 9am tomorrow how am i suppose to get cash?
  • dr futchi: hahaha
  • fidget3600: they said go to an atm, he said i dont use atms
  • dr futchi: of course!
  • dr futchi: haha
  • fidget3600: they said well we are going to call the cops
  • fidget3600: he said fine call them
  • dr futchi: niceeee
  • fidget3600: so he went outside to tell my mom what was going on
  • fidget3600: she was so upset and said she would go cash a check at price chopper
  • fidget3600: price chopper would only let her cash $25
  • dr futchi: no way
  • fidget3600: yeah, i guess cause she cashed money there the day before
  • fidget3600: the total was 27.50
  • fidget3600: so at this point the cops are there waiting with my dad
  • dr futchi: oh boy
  • fidget3600: she pulls up and walks in with a puss on her face, she was madder than anything
  • fidget3600: she told them she would never do business with them again
  • dr futchi: oh i bet!
  • fidget3600: my dad found 2 bucks in his wallet
  • fidget3600: and my mom scrambled to find some change
  • fidget3600: then they left
  • dr futchi: what a mess
  • fidget3600: and my dad said there was a young kid that looked like he didn't have a cent, sitting and watching the whole thing
  • fidget3600: and tried to give my dad $30
  • fidget3600: which was pretty nice
  • dr futchi: thats nice
  • fidget3600: my dad turned it down
  • dr futchi: of course
  • fidget3600: i was just laughing so hard, wow
