U Pump It gas station Should be called: "We Pump You" Ft. Collins Colorado
I stopped in at this gas station because I was in a pinch to get enough gas to get me to my next customer's location.
Normally, I wouldn't buy their gas because MANY people have told me horror stories about their gas being watered down.
I didn't have enough gas in the tank to drive around for a better station and I was pushed for time as well.
I pulled in next to the pump and noticed a sign on the pump saying: "PrePay".
No big deal, with the exorbitant gas prices these days I expected to see that.
So I take my happy a*s inside to "pay then pump" (reminds me of a hooker I knew back in boot camp) and I put down my $2.00 figuring that would be enough to get to my customer's location and then on to a reputable gas station.
I said to the attendant with the broken English and Middle Eastern accent:
"$2.00 on pump four".
He didn't say anything as I turned to go back out the door (I like to thank my customers...but that's just me).
I get out to my car and unscrew the gas cap then insert the nozzle and begin pumping the gas.
I set the little handle prop so I can lean against the car and wait for it to stop automatically.
Suddenly, the attendant dude comes out of the side door saying something like "You bent over" (Heavy accent here folks)
I said: "huh?"
He looks at me like I'm an idiot and then says: "You went over"
I replied: "I went over what?"
He said: "You go over two dollar"
I grabbed the nozzle out of the car and looked at the total on the pump and sure enough, it said $7.60.
I said: "It didn't shut off".
He turned and walked away and as he was walking he made some smartass remark in a smartass tone of voice.
I said: "What the hell did you say?"
No response.
I said in a rather loud voice: "What?"
Still no response.
I put the nozzle back in the cradle on the side of the pump and went inside to find out what in the world just happened.
I said: "Dude, the pump didn't shut off like it was supposed to".
He said: "The pumps don't shut off, you have to shut it off".
I said: "Why didn't you tell me that when I pre-paid?"
He said: "Because you wouldn't listen even if I did".
I said: "How the f**k would you know, if you didn't even try?"
He said: "None of you ever listen".
I said: "I don't think I have enough cash to cover the overage".
I then pulled out my bank card and asked him if he takes cards.
He replied: "No, I don't take cards"
I finally managed to scrounge up enough cash to pay the jerk the money.
I then said: "I bet this happens several times a day, everyday...huh?"
He relied: "yes" with a big grin on his face.
Needless to say, I left there fuming mad and I will NEVER spend another penny in that P.O.S. establishment...even if I have to push my car 5 miles for gas.
BUYER BEWARE!
This dude is a MAJOR rip-off!!!

What a prejudiced guy!
I bet you dont have the mental capacity to learn another language. And if by a miracle you did learn another language, it would not be at all accented.
It is your fault to not pay attention to what you were doing. I bet you were giving the mile high city a new meaning definitaion of "high".
In future please confine your remarks to the facts of the case and not racist remaks about the accent or the appearance of the person.
That is American!
