She then comes up to me and asks if she can have a few dollars for gas to get home. She told me she had to take her baby to the doctors and was on her way back home , but did not have enough gas money to get back . She looked a little bit like a junky, but she did in fact, have a baby in a car seat in the back.
I had six dollars in my pocket. I gave her that and hoped and prayed that it went in the gas tank to get the little one home, and not into her veins.
I have had a few other people hit me up at the gas pumps before . It usually puts me on high alert , and I never open up my wallet . I dont want to get robbed. I bet if you stand there for a while, and watch them , they collect a good bit of money, and never put a penny in the tank .

You can go in and pay amount X at pump Y, let the attendant know what you are doing(no cash refund).
Always try to solve the problem, if they are lying, they'll blow up at you for it. The times they really need it are worth the sorting through.
I do however, not even bother with those hanging out on left turn lanes of stop lights. Those guys are in for large amounts of cash, they know the stoplight keeps real caring interaction from taking place, the people are pressured to hand cash and get moving as the light goes green.
