OMG!! Can't imagine it... New Jersey is the only state where pumping your own gas is illegal, with attendants handling the fueling. This has been the law since 1949, under the Gasoline Dispensing Safety Act, which creates jobs and ensures safety. Oregon just allow it @2bdynamic.bsky.social
I like New Jersey!
Great! #nowar #peace #job
It’s great to fill your car up with the gas station guy pumping the gas when there’s a sleet storm.
Or when it's raining or snowing. Or, when I'm driving alone, as a woman, late at night.
My first job at 15 was pumping gas in New Jersey. Sunoco. Good times.
How is the transition to EVs being discussed in New Jersey in relation to jobs program for young people that gasoline consumers in the state subsidize?
I haven’t lived there since I was 18 and went off to school. Not sure
I miss those days. And they checked under the hood too. But just imagine how high gas prices would be…
Gas prices are relatively low in NJ.
Yup. They're usually cheaper here in NJ than across the state line in NY.
Much cheaper. I’ve lived in both states.
Raised and live in Bergen County NJ. Used to live in Brooklyn and Manhattan.
I used to live near Trenton, also in Brkln and Manhattan.
Trenton is about 80 miles from me. I'm in NW Bergen County, not far from Suffern NY/Rockland County. I lived in Cobble Hill and in Chelsea on W. 16th Street.
Me, too. Before Christie increased the gas tax, one of my friends in NY came to NJ to fill up weekly. My aunt always filled up when she visited my mom in NJ. My cousin still does.
My first job after school was pumping gas at Triangle Gulf in VA. Was a great entry level job.
Rules rules rules! 😉 Cute sign though!
