where’s my gasoline?

bad directions for pumping gasSo I’m almost empty in my car’s gas tank and I visit the Kwik Shop adjacent to Washburn’s north east corner of campus (not that it makes much of a difference). As I was filling the tank up at a reasonable $2.15 / gal. I noticed these instructions to the right of the keypad, apparently according to the directions is where payment choice is made. After glancing at them for a moment I thought to myself, “Is it really that obvious that you’re supposed to put gasoline in your car?” I decided it was, but for whoever is out there using a pump for the first time, don’t forget to squeeze the trigger on the pump handle after inserting the nozzle into the fuel intake of your vehicle so you may place fuel into the vehicle prior to follwing step number four.
