The Dinette Set by Julie Larson for October 09, 2013

What, Joy, 3 cents?

Huh???

Mornin’ Marg! Mornin’ all!

You can’t tip the guys at Costco in Portland. Can’t pump your own gas either.

Question One: Why does Joy want to tip Toby? Is there something going on there? Joy? Naaah.Question Two: Why is the door to the Men’s Room solid and the door to the Women’s Room glass? And is that the silhouette of a seated woman?Good morning to all!

Dating washrooms. “What are you doing after, babe? I’ll meet you at the doorknobs.” “On your left ear, is that Arby’s Horsey Sauce?”

I think the joke here is that there is no way to know how much gas is “half way.”

Morning everybody….

And welcome home, Marg!

Did they let you leave the state?

“Tip Toby”…. hope she doesn’t mean knock him over.

So…. I can see the scenario playing out in Burl’s little piggy brain….Toby puts in his best guess…. small car…. hmmm…. half a tank, maybe 6 gallons.

“No!” says Burl. His tank is only 11 gallons…. AND he had 2 gallons in there already….

So he really only asked for 3 1/2 gallons….

and he gets into a huge argument, first with Toby, then the manager…

If by any chance the manager has never met him or heard of him… maybe…. just maybe…he gets away with not paying for that 2 1/2 gallons he insists he didn’t order.

He doesn’t realise he’d have to be at least 1000 miles from Crustwood to find a manager who’s not onto him.

So I have a tip for Toby:When you see Burl coming….run for that Men’s room…

You can’t see through the door.

Sometimes if you request it for whatever reason, you can have somebody come out and help you fill your gas tank. These people are doing that because they’re lazy. I’m running low on the brain bleach. :-(

The “tip” will be an expired Arby’s coupon.

I always thought that ARCO brand was ‘water gas’?

Here’s a tip for Toby, Super premium, and fill the top half. **************************************I notice the front doors to Toby’s Hexxon are the toilets, and the women’s has a very nice and sparkling clean full glass door so it lets in the sunshine where it normally does not shine for a nicer toilet experience.

I like this station….. Usually you have to walk thru the entire store to the back corner… to get to the washroom… ! ! !

Does the window on the women’s room mean that they at least keep it clean? That would be a novelty for a service station (never mind a full-service station). I can still have the inflation checked in my tires (by going to “Discount Tires”) naturally I also bought a set from them when I saw one wearing out I used to worry about my hands getting smelly from the nozzle or even worse (back in IL – a good pair of red leather gloves). Now I carry wipes to use on my hands and don’t need gloves.

Toby’s Hexxon doesn’t offer air, just water and gas.
