God this is a moany old person thread
I'm pretty sure this has all been said before in this thread so I don't hold much hope of changing minds etc.
let's assess. We don't want to bother taking our helmets off because it wastes time, so we'll take extra long to then take them off/ put them back on to annoy someone that's paid by the hour?
The person behind the till doesn't make the rules, the person behind the till doesn't care if you rob them or not - paid by the hour.
The people you're holding up in the queue don't have anything to do with it, they've got lives to get on with and they won't think
'God this petrol station is annoying because this biker is making me wait'
They'll think
'God all bikers are annoying because this biker is making me wait'.
If the till jockey is new or inexperienced, you'll ruin their day for something their employers tell them to ask.
If the till jockey has been doing the job a while, they won't give a flying monkeys how long you take, they're paid by the hour.
I can understand the 'I'm not going there again' school of thought, but why waste your time, their time, everybody's time in doing so?
Reverse rant over, carry on.
(Oh, I got asked for ID for alcohol, I'm so annoyed that I'm going to take ages showing them my ID, pay in pennies and call the cashier a trollop, despite them being threatened with their jobs if they don't ask)
(Ok, now rant over)
