A few stories people tell about this place

1. At Chevron, a delivery driver kept noticing an old man staring intently at the ceiling-mounted clock above the counter. One morning, he announced over the intercom: 'Ladies and gentlemen, according to our esteemed customer here, it's now officially 1987.' The manager looked up at the clock, shrugged, then calmly replied over the intercom: ‘Sir, that clock stopped working in 1987.’ The old man nodded sagely, smiled, and left without another word. From then on, whenever anyone mentioned the year, everyone at Chevron would glance up at the silent clock with a knowing smile.

2. At Chevron, a delivery driver noticed something peculiar one morning. ‘Hey,’ he called out to a regular filling up his car, ‘you’re always here first thing in the morning—what’s your secret?’ The regular smiled mysteriously and replied, 'Oh, I’ve got a special trick: I fill my tank exactly halfway, then top it off later.' The delivery guy shook his head with a laugh, realizing that sometimes the best secrets are just plain old tricks.

3. At Chevron, a delivery driver once asked curiously, ‘Why does that guy keep refilling his coffee cup from my truck?’ It turned out he was just a coffee enthusiast who lived nearby and had run out of beans again. Now they’re friends who occasionally swap stories over freshly brewed cups.

4. At Chevron, a delivery driver found a mysterious note taped inside the gas pump. It read: 'Fill up with E85 on Thursdays for free!' Curious, he tried it and sure enough, the meter stopped working mid-pump. The next Thursday, everyone in town showed up with their cars, filling every nozzle. The station was overwhelmed—no more free E85, just long lines and confused attendants. Finally, an old neighbor approached the delivery driver and asked, ‘Mate, why didn’t you tell us sooner? We could’ve organized a carpool!’
