That’s when Summer Jokes for Work become less of a fun idea and more of a survival tool.

As a teenager, John had a summer job pumping gas. One week, an older man pulled up and asked for a fill-up. After parking, the man got out of the car, opened a large umbrella, and began following the young attendant around the vehicle, holding the umbrella above the teen’s head to shield him from the sun. It was a strange gesture, but the teenager awkwardly thanked him as the man paid and drove off.
A week later, the same car returned. The older man asked for another fill-up and, once again, stepped out with the umbrella. But this time, he simply opened it and stood off to the side, watching silently as the teenager worked under the hot sun. The boy glanced at him and asked, “So you’re not gonna use that to keep the sun off me this time?”
The man gave a wry smile and replied, “Watch it, young man. Fuel me once, shade on you. Fuel me twice, shade on me!”
