1. At Shell gas station, a regular yelled one morning, ‘Hey, did you see that car just drove off without paying?’ The attendant shrugged and replied, ‘Yep, it’s happened before.’ Then another guy walked in, clearly confused. ‘What car?’ he asked. The attendant grinned: ‘The one that always pays on time.’

2. At Shell gas station, one morning a voice crackled over the intercom: 'Attention, everyone—we’ve just run out of regular unleaded. Please fill up with premium today!' A delivery driver, frowning, asked, ‘But why does my truck need premium?’ A neighbor chimed in, laughing, ‘Maybe it’s time for an upgrade!’ The intercom buzzed again: ‘Actually, sir, your truck is doing fine on regular—just our way of saying thank you for being such a loyal customer.’

3. At Shell gas station, an elderly gentleman stood patiently in line one afternoon when suddenly he exclaimed, ‘I just saw something strange out there!’ Everyone looked around curiously. Just then, a delivery driver walked up and asked what everyone was staring at. The old man pointed towards the road and said, ‘Did you see that? A squirrel tried to cross the highway, but got stuck on the pole!’ They all laughed as the neighbor chimed in, ‘Yep, same squirrel we've been watching for weeks now.’

4. At Shell gas station, a little boy pointed excitedly and whispered to his mom, ‘Mom, look! The pump just winked at me!’ The mother smiled and gently said, ‘Honey, it’s just the light reflecting off the pump.’ They both laughed, and as she paid for the gas, an old delivery driver chuckled, ‘Kids these days see winks everywhere!’
