My Little Silly Adventure

Today is Friday, it is a day to unwind, right? Just now while looking at the ceiling and thinking of what I have done this week, this embarrassing incident came to my mind. I wonder how many of u have done what I did.... hehehe....

Me and my 2 colleagues were on the way to visit Lynn the other day and we were chatting happily in the car. Halfway, I stopped by a petrol station for refill. Still yakking away with my colleagues from outside the car, I pumped the petrol .... moments later, i got my refill, got my credit card slip and started to drive away. Upon reaching the junction, I realized someone was horning continuously from behind. Who? The Petronas attendant! He was after me with his motorbike waving and horning away....... so...what did u think i didn't do????

Yes, u r right (as if i know what u guessed...lol....)

I didn't close my petrol gauge, it was still opened, the knob dangling at the side of my car with the little door opened as well !!

*sigh... so malu-ing...what will claire do next?*

  14. Still better experience than mine. Many years back I've experience at petrol station. First, I insert my credit card to the machine and waiting for verification. At the same time I open my petrol gauge than placed the noozle. I keep talking with my friends. After few minutes, I put back the noozle and ready to drive my car. Suddenly the pump attendants knocking at my car window and said 'amoi..itu minyak belum masuk lagi..ko tidak tekan minyak masuk'..haiyo so embarassing!!
