Meghann: I Want To Pump My Own Gas
Twitter/Facebook/SR buddy Meghann Cuniff mentioned on her blog recently that she’s off on an
well-deserved, two-week vacation back to her home country, Oregon. So I wasn’t surprised to see a post from Oregon on her Twitter account that sez pointedly: “At a gas station in Portland. Not being able pump your own gas is ridiculous but “I still love Oregon.” I agree with her bottom line. If I didn’t live in Idaho, I’d probably live in Oregon. Beautiful country. Much closer to the ocean. However, her observation about the gas stations there hit home. I’m not a patient sort. And I don’t like waiting for an attendant at an Oregon station to amble over to pump your gas … or to quit pumping it once the pump shuts off. How about you?
Question: What do you think of the Oregon law that requires attendants at stations pump gas?
