They should engineer the gas pumps to be stronger than steel. Make the hose out of some high tech titanium spider silk stuff. Then, when you drive off without removing the hose, your vehicle gets flipped like a tiddly-wink.

A lesson we only need to teach once.
Problem solved.

Eh, I'm not touching that nozzle without being forced to. Oregon is doing just fine, thanks. In the event of catastrophe, or driving through California we’ll ask one of the locals how to work the confounded contraption, otherwise we prefer the human interaction and supporting jobs. And if it’s so damn simple then it’s nothing to boast about that you “get” to do it. Mopping the floor is easy, maybe we shouldn’t have janitors for restrooms, just a self service mop and some rags.lol

I didn't think driving off with the hose still in actually happened that often.

As serious as a heart attack, stay the fuck out of Oregon.

Jobs ... man.
You know that your skills are in demand when the state government has to force station owners to employ you. Man, Oregon should just make up a whole slew of mandatory jobs and get the whole state back to work.

Here’s a few ideas:
Bathroom Hand Dryer Operator
Shoe Removal Clerk (for Payless, Footlocker, etc)
Garbage Can to Curbside Pilot
Dog Walker
Cat Petter
Ball Cap Adjuster

Man, we LOVE jobs, guys. Let’s make up some more!
:lol:

Has to be trolling.
SJWs are a natural consequence of corporatism.

Folk get accustomed to their way of life.
Now the Oregonians are getting a taste of what the Confederate states just went through.

Pfft, it's not. Go to a college and look around, distracted idiots abound. We call them walking hood ornaments for a reason.

It's mostly women because they are not in general as single-minded as men. Men often take for granted single-mindedness, but if you really observe people you will see that women have to struggle with it (in general). There are exceptions on both sides, I am just talking in generalities.

Feminized men is a different thing entirely. They still tend to possess more single-mindedness.

Women are all over the place. They try to sell it up as "multitasking", but it's really just driving off with the fuel pump hanging out of her car.
