No he was not alone its a big store there was a few people in there he seemed scared and didn't know what to do kinda look but really u see me with 3 kids scared out of my mind and he shut the pump down and put one if them red out of order bags over it and he told me that just 10mins before i got there a man went in and told him it was leaking but he said to the worker he fixed it not to worry but the guy that worked there never went to check it out

Now that is a post that makes me feel like crap cause I work at a gas station lol. Was the guy by himself? Thats my only question cause if that happened at my work and Im by myself I cant leave the store but I wouldnt of told you to take it out. My first call would of been to my boss then follow from there since I really cant do anything without calling him first. But I agree he was an idiot.

I wouldn't be surprised if I saw on the news where it blew up. You should contact your local fire department and tell them what happened. They HAVE to shut down that pump until they fix it.
