Nonsense - Take 2

If you plot a graph of petrol price variations over the last few months, I guess it'd look like an old man's ECG.

Add the price difference between different petrol bunks isn't negligible either.

This makes people want to save some money, maybe by going to a bunk that charges the less.

Yesterday, While standing in the petrol bunk queue, I heard a man who was talking about how he spent more than hour to come to that particular bunk because they charge 50 paise less.

His bike at most could hold about 15 litres of petrol. And this good man travelled about 10 km to do that.

The journey takes approximately an hour, he said, and that means he would save about 8 bucks in exchange of about 2 hours of his day.

I guess that's less than minimum wage.
