Hate waiting in line at NJ Turnpike stops. Hate seeing no line at the next service area even more when I ---probably--- could have made it.

First time I drove through Oregon in 1989(?) I didn't know about the law there and pumped my own. The attendant when he eventually wandered over, explained it to me, but was lackadaisical about it.

The next place in Oregon I got gas, I pumped my own again, and the attendant there flipped the fuck out about how I was putting him and every in a half mile radius at grave physical risk since I was not a trained professional. It was truly weird.

The Jalopnik story about people there freaking out over having to pump their own gas was kinda funny. https://jalopnik.com/join-america-in...abo-1821708958
