For the first time in more than seven decades, drivers in Oregon are allowed to pump their own gas.

    I’ve never seen anyone tip a gas station attendant in NJ before. I don’t know what they get paid though

      My son used work as a gas attendent years ago in NJ, and he was paid a little above minimum wage. Sometimes he would get tips.

      Anecdotal experience incoming…

      I used to pump gas in NJ at a Wawa. I got paid around $9 an hour in the early 2000s. At Wawa at least, the gas attendants get paid the same as the inside staff.

      Tips were always appreciated, but never expected.

      That’s interesting. I’ve seen all kinds of people you wouldn’t tip elsewhere routinely be tipped in the USA. So I assumed as someone performing a service they would be included.
