Apparently the Way I Wait to Get Gas Is Stressing Everyone Out

have…

half a tank.

That’s a lot of gas!

The car isn’t struggling.

Nothing is flashing.

I’m not pulling over on the side of the road.

I don’t need to change my plans.

I can still go places.

Why would I interrupt whatever I’m doing to get something I already have plenty of?

But then I realized these people aren’t necessarily thinking about the amount of gas they have.

They’re thinking about the amount of gas they might need later.

And that’s a completely different way of looking at it.
