I am not too excited about working weekends, and a while back was no different. I'd just come away from home after eating a magnificent dinner prepared by the better half, and I was on the way to assist a man who had put the incorrect petrol in his Ravenscliffe. He was situated nearby so I arrived with him rapidly. Just as I arrived right behind the vehicle and stepped out he told me "Praise the Almighty! I incredibly had my concentration on something else and didn't grasp that I had put the wrong fuel in my petrol vehicle. Have I brought on harm simply by starting it?" I said generally there shouldn't be any kind of harm and also that I'd personally remove the wrong fuel quickly for him. Needless to say I got the contaminated fuel drained from the vehicle and put in some suitable fuel, and one more pleased client was able to continue his ride without any subsequent bother. He couldn't stop saying thanks to me, and this is actually what makes carrying out work on weekends a little better for me personally!
