Anybody else hate going inside gas stations?

I try to tap my card at the pump whenever possible. This allows me to pay and go. No need to go inside and wait behind someone buying energy drinks, count nickels, or 10 scratch offs.

And the customer service is usually subpar. It would be different if it was somw young Chick-fil-A sloots, but its always Indian guys with the weirdest facial expression.

I always do my best to avoid gas stations where theres no tap to pay. Srs.

Yes and what gets me is, no matter how nice or affluent of a neighborhood you’re in, gas stations are always ghetto. I haven’t figured out why. It’s just wherever you go, there’s always drug addicts, drunks, scammers/panhandlers, mentally ill boomers with thousand yard stares, low IQ tradies covered in filth, and so on and so forth. Even in rich areas. Shit’s annoying AF mane.

Buccees is the only gas station worth going into. Ive only been inside one, but its good customer service, clean, and fresh cooked meals.

Aware and it’s pretty decent if you’re on a road trip and need a break. More of a tourist trap tho and I found the food overrated but yes I don’t get typical gas station feels there.

This, but Sams for me.

Once in a blue moon I’ll get gas at the gas station by my job, but I’ve never actually gone in. Has to be at least 5 years since I’ve been inside a gas station

I know a gas station with the laziest panhandlers you've ever seen. They don't come up and ask for money, they shout it across the parking lot. Srs

It's probably one of the reasons electric cars are popular, people will spend a premium to avoid the riff-raff
