So, congratulations on acting like an ape, Fly_boy. How about next time you take an approach other than mindless aggression? A shrug and a simple apology for the inconvenience would have cost you nothing.

1st going in to pay is not fucking about in the shop

2nd he tried the shrug and apology and it gave the cage driver the impresion he was someone that cager could walk all over so fuck him fly boy you did good and stick to it

bling sent

Most of the gas stations here in Rotovagas have 'pay first' signs, although I usually get away with it, fill and pay after, perhaps I look like a fast start is beyond me

On the other hand it's polite to move your bike if there's a space in front of the shop and it's a busy station. It will reduce the likelyhood of having to smash some prick who's knocked your bike over so it's a win-win. Like all things biking it's better to avoid being the situation in the first place.

I usually move my bike with my helmet off so there's no doubt about me riding off with a tank of gas and not once has anyone ever said anything about it

WTF?? Have never heard this before. You don't move the car away from the pump before you pay so why do it on the bike??

Sure you do. I did it all the time when I drove a cage everywhere. Especially if I planned to get a drink and a pie and generally stuff around.

Pretty standard stuff at any busy NI gas station. Obviously the key is to drive to a free park in front of the shop so you're clearly not doing a runner.

I suspect you've never come across it because most south island gas stations don't get busy enough to warrant it

I call into the local Shell several times a day to fill , top up yard / loan cars etc for work.
One day i had a silly bloke just busting to get to the pump and he was so important he just had to be next . I finished , went to pay and he leant out his half open door to yell at me for taking so long to pay , Huh? . He was yelling a cussing like a true Welshman . I was trying to be polite as i was in my uniform with company logo and name and stuff on my shirt but he just kept on at me. Even the lady in the next bay told him to shut up lol.
I decided to piss this asshole in his bloody Nissan and went round to the pump side , out of his view as i was in a ute with a canopy. I changed the 91 nozzle with the Diesel nozzle and got in the ute and left. That will teach him i thought.
About an hour later i was passing and i saw this dumb assed arrogant prick sucking all the Diesel out of his tank lol .
I kinda felt a bit bad but , its always fair during war isnt it?

Moral = When company policy stops you being confrontive (when at work) you have to just be inventive .

Good one. Sounds like that arsehole needed to be taught a lesson. LOL.

Whe I get gas I leave my bike where it is but I make sure I don't f&ck around, pay and get out if its busy. I haven't struck abuse or anything but if someone dared to touch my Ducati the last few seconds of their life would be very painful.

We have a saying in the old country that my dear old Papa used to say "You toucha my bike(I think he actually said car but it needed adapting), I breaka you face" and I guess cause he's Northern italian people knew to take him seriously and not test their luck.

There's been plenty of times I've moved both the bike and the cage. If you do move your vehicle,whatever it is, sweet. If you don't, so be it.

The rule is you don't interfer/touch someone else's vehicle. Easy!

After all, what happens if you accidentally damage it? It's your arse in the poo. And it won't matter how nicely you behave, the owner will be pissed off. And have every right to be.

I paid, came back and hopped on the bike, before I got it started they pulled up real close and blasted the horn.......... I got a bit angry

Now I'm not small - big really, I hadn't shaved for a while and have a No 1 hair cut - I guess when I'm mad I look a bit intimidating

Got off the bike all calm like, took my helmet off and started walking toward them......
There jolliness turned to an 'ah o' look... car in reverse and they were gone.

U rock... where are u when I need u...???
