Fuel station conversation

After filling up fuel, went in to pay. The fuel guy seemed to be your average football lovin', meat pie eatin', beer drinkin' okka:

Fuel guy: G'day how are ya mate
Me: Good thanks mate
Fuel guy: Anything else with that?
Me: Nah just the fuel thanks mate
Me: Oh hang on I think we have a fly buys card
Me: Gesturing to the wife in the car about Fly Buys card
Wife: Gestures from car not to wory about Fly Buys card
Me: She says not to worry about it
Fuel guy: The boss has spoken
Me: Even us Muslims have our wife as the boss
Fuel guy: Well I don't have to worry about that .. (very short silence follows)
Me: (Thinking obviously he is going to say that he is not married, getting ready to say something like "well you're your own boss then" or something like that)
Fuel guy: I'm gay
Me: Can I have a receipt for that please?
Fuel guy: Sure here you go
Me: OK bye
