Wait, you guys cant pump your own gas? And this is seen as a good thing? Can someone explain? I’m not from Oregon
I’m from s country that has never had self serving gas stations and I genuinely cannot understand why Americans are so obsessed with pumping their own gas
There’s a labor shortage.
If you pay a person to operate a gas pump the cost of gasoline is more.
If you can let people pump their own gas that’s fewer workers at the gas station, which translates to lower prices.
I’m lazy and I don’t get it either. What’s fun standing freezing weather pumping gas?
I’ve never been to Oregon but I just dropped in to let you know how happy I am for you guys. You’ve earned this.
Well, shoot. That was one of the few things about living in Oregon that I actually enjoyed.
Don’t worry, stations are still required to have half their pumps be full service.
