RANCHO CORDOVA, Calif. – The manager who misplaced a decimal point at a Northern California gas station pricing premium gas for just 69 cents a gallon has now been fired.<\/p>\n

The manager at the Shell gas station in Rancho Cordova, Calif., Accidentally moved the decimal point to the wrong spot.<\/p>\n

Hundreds of drivers ended up getting the cheap gas for several hours before the mistake was discovered costing the gas station $ 16,000.<\/p>\n

“I put all three prices on there, except the diesel. The last one kind of didn’t go. So, I just took responsibility for it and said yeah it’s my fault,” said John Szczecina, gas station manager.<\/p>\n

Gas stations across the country have been dealing with record-breaking gas prices.<\/p>\n

Szczecina says he’s worried about getting sued by the station owners, so his family has started a GoFundMe to help re-pay the lost revenue.<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n
