Spent 30 mins hostage on a 'full' EV charger

Went to the small oak‑grove station just to snag 55kWh, then the thing locked in.

No LED on the tower, no Wi‑Fi signal on the monitor, iPhone buzzed like "We're out," but battery icon kept reading 14%. They told me to wait till next bus. Guess it was time for a power line walk‑home. I showed up again at 9 : 11 PM, they STILL blocked it.

So now that day of doom lasted an hour just waiting for someone to press a switch that would finally let the next driver hook up their phone in disbelief. Seriously, did Tesla announce some ‘reserved spot protocol’? I can already see a wave of “this site’s a scam” posts. Tell me when the maintenance crew arrives and turn them away—looking forward to your recipes and rebuttals.

Are you at the station so early; I missed a work that you decided it was something about being prepared like a museum exhibit. Would love to hear, will not actually come find them or anything unless somebody throws a bucket of pizza.
