Should I be pissed? At least I think I should be.

So my car was on dead E, and letting it idle to see if the P1441 code would come back up after I replace the canister vent valve ( which it didn't....so far) And I head to the 5th Ave. Wawa where I live. I'm about a half a mile away and my car starts to stutter, so i throw it in neutral ,and use the last bit of umph to get it up one last hill, shortly after it dies out. I happen to have enough momentum to coast into the Wawa parking lot, and pull over where large trucks do.

So I begin to push to the pump, but once again they have a small incline, and I'm about 30 feet away and almost at a stop when a gas station attendant finally came over and helped ( there was 3 cars and the person that came over was talking to another attendant at the time, I was watching.) The problem is I get Vinnie the Loud mouth as my attendant, and he begins to tell me to prime the system and yadda yadda, and throws a couple jokes in there. So we get done, I go to grab the money I had in the car to give the kid a couple bucks, but the envelop I had it in was in the back seat. I guess he thought I was going to put my seatbelt back on, and he comes up to my window, and tells me I should go give that kid a couple bucks for helping me out. How dare you tell me who to pay for and what, that's what pisses me off. I'm not a prick, I am thankful he helped, and I tipped him, but don't tell me what to do with my money, I thought that was ****ing rude.

I'm not going back there for a while, and probably will send a complaint to Wawa ( although I didn't get his name, I'm not going to name names, just Wawa HQ will send a memo and they will let the workers know during a store meeting.) But should I be pissed some worker is telling me to tip someone else for helping me push my car?
