Oregon’s Senate has repealed a 72-year prohibition against self-service gas, with new legislation requiring gas stations to staff half the available pumps, while allowing the rest to be self-service. The bill, responding to industry staffing shortages, also prohibits charging more for full-service than self-service, likely leading to the phasing out of full-service pumps.
Meanwhile, I live in a country where probably over half the gas stations have no personnel at all.
I remember one service station testing the concept of having staff help with gas, and it felt really awkward.
That’s interesting, I live in a country where the compete opposite happens, you don’t touch the pump at all, a lot of people don’t even leave the car usually. The gas station staff does it, never heard of one here where you could do it yourself.
Might sound fancy, but it’s just mistrust.
