Fueled to be Tied

I'm in sales, and I do a lot of driving. I can't tell you how many different things I see on the road. Vic has had some whoppers, and this is not about her at all. I have my moments, but this has got to be the best this year. This is my blond moment of the year "2007" for Tommy.

I drive the company car around most of the time. It seems I'm the only one that puts gas in this car also. I was out one day and made my local run to two of my bigger customers. On my way to Steelcase, I heard a loud banging on the right side of the company car. I speed up, ad the noise got louder. I'm thinking, great something is wrong with this car, and it needs to get fixed again. I just couldn't imagine what was wrong with the car and this noise.

Every time a fuel my cars, I make sure that I replace the gas cap on the car and shut the fuel door. I can't tell you how many times I have seen these driving morons going down the road with the gas cap dangling from the car and the fuel door open. I just shake my head and say, I can't believe someone can do this!

Guess what, I've now joined the club of "Moron who forgot to put the gas cap on and shut the door!" I'm getting older, and it's all down hill from here.

I did a search on this for a picture, and ran across a story of someone who had a detachable gas cap. Well they forgot to put it back on, and drove down the road. They figured they would go back just past the gas station figuring that someone else did the same thing. They found a locking gas cap! The totally funny things was, the gas cap fit, and now they have a better cap.

I was "fit to be tied" about this embarrassment. I tried to get to Steelcase as fast as I could to get the fuel door closed and the cap back on. I'm human, and this is a story about being "Fueled to be Tied"!
