darn station attendants

just finally remembered to put this one here.
i pulled up to the gas station near my home. my mother was with and told me to put the gas on her card. she had to go somewhere else so she just drove to the station with me. i put the card in and set the pump. hand her the card and she just left when i walked back to the pump. it said pump stopped. one of the stupid attendants shut the pump off thinking i was putting the wrong fuel in. not the first time its happened at this station that i frequent every 2 weeks. just another little frusteration.so i had to call my mother to come back so i could put it on her card as i had 0 cash on me. the back of the car was facing the window too. so they had to have seen turbodiesel. anyone else ever have this happen?
-Steven

Most of the old Mercedes on the road are diesels.
