Overall

This is the worst gas station I have ever been to. I live here locally on beautiful Venice Island, respectfully. The owner of this gas station has to be the worst Clerk there could ever be. I'd defend to be misunderstood, however the foreigner is so anti-American, yet blessed by the country, and still he won't act Godly. I am a regular customer, and never does he greet kindly, rather with the usual sly remarks only a foreigner with a lack of understanding can do. I have tried patients with the owner, being nice over and over. That did not work. I deal with him daily so I tried the technique where I show him rood, and like a coward, than he showed the human decency one deserves. The problem is I have a problem with being rood, and am not going to change myself for the worst to get treated better by a coward... I once forgot my wallet, had no gas, than asked him to loan me a dollar of gas real quick so I could go grab my wallet, and he says, "I understand, but the answer is no." Another time I asked for a dollar in change for the air machine, and it did not work, and I come back in and inform him, and he brings out a list of people he owes a dollar to and asks me for my name. Another way for him not to help someone out, as you can figure out that one. I said, " Do you have another dollar?" he says, "But you say the machine does not work?" I knowing as well as him that the machine loses a quarter inside sometimes just sternly looked at him and said, "Give me a dollar in change" he folded like he should, and gave me my change. I put in one quarter, and what do you know the machine turned on. He comes out, and instead of offering me a quarter like and upright individual would do, the snake points out that one section is for vacuum and one is for air, knowing as well as I do that the machine eats quarters. Like he can't get the quarter back himself? Oh well some people have made their decisions on what path they will live, and the rest of us just have to be glad were not one of them when we cross their path, stay humble, and not let it go to our head that the Lord has blessed us so richly, because as we have learned it can be pretty bad.
