$133.80 may be a small amount to some, but not one petrol station attendant, who said he was made to pay for a customer’s mistake.
The amount was allegedly docked from the attendant’s salary after a customer at Shell Upper Bukit Timah PIE drove off without paying for his petrol, a concerned passer-by shared in a Facebook post on Monday (Oct 5).
The passer-by had spotted the attendant looking “dejected” while she was topping up her petrol that day, she recounted in the post which has since been taken down.
Asking after the man, who remains unidentified, she learnt that he reportedly had his pay docked after an incident in September where he failed to notice that a driver in a black Lexus had not made payment before leaving the petrol station.
The driver appeared to pay by swiping his Shell card, the attendant said. However, he was chatting with the driver at the time and did not realise that the transaction had not gone through.
Sharing the driver’s license plate number, which the attendant had recorded on a piece of cardboard, she appealed for him to come forward as the money “meant a lot” to the attendant.
