That hasn't been a problem around here yet, but I take your point. I only do it if it's really busy and it's only to keep the queue moving. In some places in the States you have to go in to the cashier and give them your credit card first, then they will turn the pump on.
No credit card - no gas!!

You'd be surprised how fast us we service station workers could move if we thought someone was going to do a drive off. 'Course, that's when we had forecourt staff that would pump gas for the customers, I would've stood in front of a car to stop it. Mind you, you can usually spot the ones who aren't simply moving their car by the body language, type of car, age and/or skin colour.
Is it really against the law in Oz for you to move the car without paying, or is it more likely that the cashier can't clear the sale from the computer till it's paid, which releases the pump for the next sale? Surely if it's against the law, it doesn't count till you've left the premises.
Ahh, but the petrol still belongs to the gas station 'till it's paid for
Well if your vehicle hasn't left the premises you're just moving it from their tank to another area of their property. What p!sses me off is when they come out and make me take my Jerry can off the ute and put it on the ground to fill it, yet I can fill up my ZTR tanks on the trailer no problem .... I don't get that one.

Well I finally got a reply from my client. I have done her job once more since I replied to her. She came back to me yesterday and it turns out it was Jimbo who provided her with the quote. This is pretty strange because I know most Jims would be charging higher than me but anyway it was a Jim's. She didn't say if she contacted him or he contacted her. Didn't do him much good because someone else undercut him and she has gone for that operator. She was ok about it but as I told her I was not prepared to lower my prices. I sent a reply back saying good luck and don't blame me when you new bloke doesn't turn up or does a s*** job. Now have to find another in that area to replace her.

Received an email enquiry yesterday for fortnightly mowing and gardening.
No contact details included, no phone number, no address.
No reply to my email asking for their details so I can book a time to quote the job.
Clairvoyancy isn't in my job description.

African Love Grass. It's as tough as nails and wraps around the spindle housings and eventually binds up the shafts and starts smouldering.
Huge bulk in the clippings and they take months to break down.
Hate the stuff.
