Where I live we had one gas station with full service when I was a kid, and it cost like a third more than any other gas station in the area so almost no one went there and it eventually went to self serve pumps like every other station. Aside from the one time I went there I have always pumped my own gas, and I’d feel weird if someone else did it for me lol

The cheapest gas station around me is the only full service one around. I hate it. I’ll pay extra to not have to deal with the forced interaction. Tipping cancels out the discount anyways.

A state near mine that I visit occasionally has laws in place that prohibit pumping your own gas. I always forget this and get out of the car, which leads to a very awkward confrontation with the attendant. It definitely feels weird.

I have never pumped my own fuel on my car except when I visit the US. I feel like a 7 year old handling that pump thing. Happy I don’t have to do that where I live.

My parents started asking me to pump the gas for them since I was like 10, so I’m pretty used to it now lol
