Playing with fire

Went to fill up the car the other day. On the other side of the pump from me was a Ford Exploder with the gas pump nozzle in the tank, pumping away on automatic, with nobody in sight. Tank must have been empty because it was going and going. I looked back at the convenience store office but didn't see the guy. I went on and started pumping my gas but kept an eagle eye on the Exploder. The orphan nozzle finally shut off about the time the dodohead came out of the store with his two cups of coffee in hand. I told the attendant inside about it and she said she thought somebody was still with the car or she would have shut if off inside, said it would have been a big mess if the nozzle had malfunctioned. I told her it could have been more than a mess.

There's a sticker right on the pump that says it's the law that you have to stay with your car while gassing up. This was a chance only an idiot would take.
