Customers across the nation are denouncing President Joe Biden for the skyrocketing increase in gas prices, though BP seems to be taking extra measures to prevent customers from comically showing their frustrations.
“They go right back up as fast as you take them down. So why keep fighting the battle?” Viking Village Gas owner Pam Coy explained to Fox News host Jesse Watters after being fined $400.

“I get BP doesn’t want that stuff on their pumps. But I’m not wasting employee time taking them down when we’re already short-staffed with everything going on and I have better things for them to do,” Coy went on.
The owner of Viking Village Gas clarified that while it’s not technically a fine, the gas station can get a bonus every quarter. Because they won’t remove the iconic stickers, BP is punishing them by not permitting them bonus money. Thus far, that total has come to $400.

“I agree with the stickers...and I’m tired of having my employees waste their time taking them down because people are venting, they’re frustrated,” Coy announced. “So, I told my manager, my staff had more important things to do. Don’t take them stickers down. I don’t care if we lose the bonus money.”

Coy stated that the stickers are a way for her customers to “vent” and get their frustrations “off their chest.”

In a video posted to Facebook, Glazewski can be seen shouting, “I did that. I did that. That’s what I did,” while pointing to the stickers he placed on the pumps.
According to witness testimony, which can somewhat be seen in the video, Glazewski verbally accosted the gas station clerk that confronted him about placing the stickers on the pumps, which lead to the police being called.
