When I awoke on Black Friday, I saw that service stations had made the mistaken assumption that they were immune from Black Friday fuel discounts, simply because they believed they were unique.
These companies can’t run away from their obligations when they overcharge even for the right to urinate.
The Shells, Pumas, Totals, and johnny-come-lately Namcor cannot be left to overcharge on everything in the name of convenience and yet not play their part on Black Friday.
In Namibia, the term “garage” or “service station” is used instead of “gas station”. As you can see, in Namibia liquid enters the tank of your car instead of gas.
Now, back to the main issue.
For example, despite being the sole thing Otavi is founded around, the service station there has refused to lower its costs in any way last Friday, not even on a tiny Dot 4 brake fluid unit. Otavians, I apologise; we still believe you to be the service station.
Except for garages, everyone contributed their fair share across the country.
A certain residence in Gemengde, Katutura, put up a sign advertising “blow jobs” for just N$25. This is evidence of cross-industry collaboration.
In spite of the fact that the government doesn’t care much for this very risky sector, they went above and beyond on Black Friday.
Many of you are aware of the price of getting your hair blown out, and I’m sure you would value a discount.
We appreciate all the salons that bent over on Black Friday.
Please stop and read the last paragraph again. Pervert!
According to reports, even the street children and panhandlers were only asking for 50 cents instead of the customary dollar. There is always the one who approaches you at the stoplight and demands a dollar before pretending to cry as you roll up your window and drive off. He would open his mouth so widely that you could see the inside harm that the Pattex adhesive had caused.
This time, he gave change back.
That auntie in Funky Town, Khomasdal, has also credibly informed me that the regular delinquent was just half a “p@*s” on Black Friday because he cut all his insults in half.
That is Black Friday.
Salut, ma se kind!
All I wanted to say was that it would be wonderful if fuel stations gave discounts to drivers and showed their patriotism, especially for diesel.
