I should probably give the station a 5star rating, but today I had a bad experience, because I'm never happy when people do things I ask them not to. Today, I pulled in, (nice clean station, no one at the pump - surprising) and I immediately got out of the car to open my tank myself. But the attendant got there first...and had a very puzzled look when I asked him to let me do it. I have had MANY bad experiences with the NJ law that does NOT allow you to pump your own gas...from broken gas caps (plural) to gas spilled down the side of my car (one time gas spewed all under my car and the two gallons or so cost me $5!) and the very often getting the lower grade so my check engine light comes on....so I do as much of this process as I can for myself. That way it's on me. But today, Gary (I beleive) took umbrage at my request to step aside while I got ready for him to put the nozzle in (as is all the law requires). Ironically, this came about because "Gary" is probably a good worker, with integrity, but I'm the customer, and I requested he NOT do something. I didn't need the talking back, or the ridiculous defense of "we're trained to provide this as a service". Service is respecting my asks, like when I ask you to do nothing, not go above and beyond, just do nothing. I don't understand why that is so hard.
If you are particular, this place is usually good, as per my last 7-8 visits, I have pumped my own gas, which I love. If you are lazy, this place is PERFECT for you. Clean, fast, good gas, good prices. But if you're like me, and careful with your car, you had better be careful. Watch out for Gary! read more
