Remove your helmet

[Crasherfromwayback]

Bollocks fuck the rules and the manners, you're not going in there to have a chat and cup of tea. Walk in with the helmet each time pay up and fuck off simple.

I would have probably walked out if he fussed over it.

So if you had new carpet in ya house...and your rules were no shoes inside...you'd be cool with people saying "Fuck you and your rules...I don't need manners" and stomping dog shit all through your new carpet? Or...your rules are that nobody helps themselves to sitting on your bike...etc etc.

You're comparison is blown out of proportion.

No big deal if you walk in with your helmet on. You can still see the person's eyes and part of the face.

It's a hassle and inconvenience to take gloves and helmet off.

Service stations need to get over it.

Sorry...can't agree with you on this one. It's their place...their rules. With the amount of robbings...bashings and general mayhem that retailers have to put up with now...for video surveillance's sake...remove the helmet.

I wont use that station anymore because of the sam ebullshit. I have a flip front helmet & always open it. I was still treated badly by attendan. So now I shop around.

On similarnote Ino longer go to MKOP in Albany village. Fat bender bastard talked down to me over parking the bike outside. So I no longer go there. Money is money. I'll spend mine where I'm made to feel welcome.

It's your money and their bread and butter. I've never really seen any bashing, robbery ect with helmets on.

here we go again!

in all honesty, in the 2 and a bit years i spent at bp, i was more comfortable serving someone wearing a helmet than i was serving someone who came with either bandanna, hoodie over the head and sunglasses, or a combination of the 3.
the only rip off i ever had was by a bandanna wearing guy, who took off after id already checked him and taken his plate number.
the only bike plate i ever took down was a bike ridden by a patch wearer who looked about as ready to take off as a firecracker with a lit wick. his colors were black and yellow... cant remember which group that is. my head says tribesman, but not 100%.

myself, ive never been asked to remove my helmet when getting gas, but then ive got an open facer, so its less of an issue. i do take it off if ive got the headphones in, cos i cant hear shit otherwise, and its rude to ignore people, or ask them to repeat themselves.

Why do you think banks request removal of helmets etc? These days...the dregs of society will bash some poor shop attendant to death for a few bucks and a carton of smokes. Take your helmet off. If your coordination is that bad that doing so is such a hassle...maybe you should stick to driving a car. It really only does take a few seconds.

I purchase gas from shell northcross without incident.......'course the first time they ask me to fill my bike on the side stand, or take my helmet off will be the day they receive the bird, a healthy 'fuck you' and the cessation of my patronage.

Watching a customer fill their motorcycle with gas, wait patiently in line with cashflow card in hand and then insist they take their helmet off lacks any know application of logic. So fuck 'em!

I've never been asked to take off my helmet, & yes I do find it a pain in the arse to take off my gloves then my helmet just to put it all back on again especially when its wet & it's been said before it's not the helmet wearing biker thats doing the bashing or doing the runner
I also wear a flip front which, I might add is better than a burka, to me is the same if not worse (which should not be allowed in NZ at all) & my local garage owner said they can't make you take it off & at night they are pre pay unless they know you by 1st name
way i see it they don't want your $$ find someone who does

I saw a sign at a servo in West Auckland a couple of years ago that said 'No Helmets Allowed'.

So, I went to the counter and enquired where the non Jewish gas station was.....they didnt find it funny at all

Shalom.......

Repost!

If the station requires bikers to take their helmets off, take the frikken helmet off. Rude and bolshie pricks who ride bikes give the rest of us a bad name.

Get over it. And yourself.

What the man above said...

Comparing Banks to Service Stations?

So taking helmet off will do what? Help detect and identify your face in the video? Or does it reduce crime? Or will it prevent crime?

And if a Muslim wears a burka then they shouldn't be allowed in the service station either or does she need to take it off too?

For a logical explanation read this post below:
