Input: Text: i have to be to work everyday at 8:00 am. i do not need to clock in, but i am a contractor and it is really easy to get fired without warning. the commute is 20-45 minutes depending on traffic. anyway, the last time i drove my car i was too lazy to refuel my car and did not fill up before heading home. i completely forgot about this fact and this morning, after getting my morning donuts i looked at the gauge and the time.  the needle was on the empty and it was 7:41am.  i knew if i fueled up, i would definitely be late and get in trouble if not fired. if i chose to go directly to work, i risk running out of gas and being terribly late or simply getting to work on time.  i chose poorly.  

i did not want to run out of gas, so i decided to fuel up and be a couple of minutes late. i still rushed as fast as i could to minimize the time it took to refuel.  i prepared the words i would use while i was fueling up and on my way to work. refueling cost me 7 minutes. this would put me getting to work about 10 minutes late. it is not unheard of for traffic to set someone back that far, so i was prepared to lie, using that as an excuse. now 7:48 i drive as fast as i was comfortable with to get to work. apparently, i drove a bit too fast; i got pulled over by the cops. i could probably write some interesting dialog that sounds like some kind of a joke, but let's just say i was embarrassed. the cop gave me a $140 ticket for speeding and a court date to assess the damage i did to the fuel pump. in my rush, i left the handle in my gas tank and when i took off, i snapped the connector. fortunately, the handle of the pump was designed with dummies like me in mind and it snapped right where it could easily be repaired. i showed up to work an hour late this morning. i hope they will give me leniency since i have a citation to prove it was the cop that slowed me down.

TIFU by being lazy.
