Comment on Self-pay gas station pumps break across NZ as software can't handle Leap Dayparent

That used to be normal in the US, nowadays most pumps are automated.

You can fill up 24/7, even if the store is closed.

I make it a point when driving through NJ to fill up with gas before crossing into NJ (or making sure I have enough to get through it).

I made the mistake once of needing gas on the NJ Turnpike, stopping at a rest area and having to wait for 45 (yes FORTY FIVE) minutes while the ONE attendant operating both sides of a single pump slowly worked his way through a massive line of agitated motorists. Never Again.
