You learn to just Laugh...ALOT...Or deal with it then go into the back and just talk...even if noone is there just talk to yourself and be like...What an asshole.

I have to act like everything is under control even when I have pissed off people arguing for there money back...Theres plenty of times where I want to rip someones throat out.

But it pays the bills...and I'm good at it

wait, ya'll have people pump your gas for you? and they complain??!!

I have never even seen a gas pump attendant, let alone had someone do it for me!

And why would people argue about the gas? Everyone was charging out the ass...what is there to argue about? You sell it, they need it...

Oregon is like that too. It's illegal to pump your own gas.

Which is stupid. I don't want sketchy bastards touching my ride.


What about motorcycles in those states? How is that dealt with? No asswipe is filling my bike.

I think they do it to keep retards employed.

Not sure about bikes, but my guess is, they need to be filled by a gas station attendant. Ask Ebbs, I'm sure he knows.

New Jersey and Oregon are both that way. I don't know why. When I've ridden in those two states, they just hand me the pump. They don't want to risk scratching my bike, and I wouldn't let pump it anyway.

When Carolina and I were in Oregon this year, we met a guy at a station in the middle of nowhere that did the same thing. He handed me the pump. I asked him why it was a state law. He said "I don't know. It's been like that since I was a kid. We've always pumped the gas. I think they do it to keep us in a job.* I asked him if he realized that there were 48 other states in the US where we had to pump our own gas, and there were people running those stations too, so basically, Oregon was just creating more work for him. He thought about it for a minute and decided I was right and didn't like that idea so much anymore.
