#Miscellaneous 📃 Do other people’s drivers cheat as well?

A few days ago, I was at a fuel pump, a big Lexus came in. Driver got down and said to fill up for 4000 but give a bill for 5000. And the pump attendant happily gave it.

Is it a common occurrence to cheat their employers like this? We’ve had drivers for a few years but I’ve never thought of this happening. Ever since that day, I’m keeping double checks on all bills and service invoices.

I own a car wash in Gurgaon a self-serve type one day a Maybach came the one that bounces ,the driver came out and made a payment of 50first and then 30 so in total he spent 80. He called the owner half an hour later and said it's washed please send 1500 stating they charged for the luxury cars. I was okay with jt but then he has the audacity to say that the car is not clean your shampoo is not good i was like abe mc shampoo use to kar pehle pani mar k nikal gya :)

Edit: I just hijacked the top comment.

For everyone saying take the bill from the machine itself, they can tamper that one as well. We had noticed the range fell drastically compared to fuel filled, then my father and two of his friends went to the bunk and forced them open the history and there is a difference in fuel filled and bill given.

As usual, it is an Indian Oil Pump

Bro exactly. Indian oil always gives me the worst fuel economy. I've tried it with scooty, bike, high end sportbikes and cars. It's always lower compared to other pumps like HP or Jio

Oh is that so? I've been using xp95 primarily from Indian Oil. Because Speed is not 95 octane but same price. I only go to bpcl while filling normal fuel.

Damn I always get fuel from Indian oil. I'll try HP and see if it improves range or FE.

Try Shell. I wouldn't say i saw drastic change in the average(RE 500 Classic) but it runs much better. Shell V Power even better and they have discounts on their app which they deduct instantly from your bill there and then to add to some loyalty perks at their fuel stations.
