About this location

A few stories people tell about this place

1. At Chevron, a delivery driver always forgot one thing: his smile. Every morning, he’d pull up in his truck and dash inside, only to emerge moments later with a gallon of milk but no greeting for the cashier. Then one day, he left something unexpected behind. Finally, it turned out that every morning the delivery driver was rushing because he had forgotten his wallet at home. So, after leaving an empty milk carton on the counter as a joke, he raced back to grab some cash before anyone noticed.

2. At Chevron, in the early hours before dawn, a lone gas station attendant noticed something peculiar. A neighbor’s car pulled up every night, its headlights casting an eerie glow across the pumps. The owner never got out—just sat inside, staring intently at the moon. One night, the attendant couldn’t help but wonder who was behind that wheel. Curiosity got the better of him, and he crept outside with a flashlight. As he approached the car, the neighbor rolled down his window and asked, ‘Can you believe how big tonight’s moon is?’ Turned out it was just another delivery driver admiring the view. Since then, they’ve become friends, stopping for coffee together after their shifts.

3. At Chevron, an elderly gentleman would often stop for coffee after his morning walk. One day, he exclaimed, ‘I haven’t seen that pump number change since I was a kid!’ A young delivery driver overheard him and joked, ‘Sir, those pumps are probably older than you!’ The old man smiled wisely and replied, ‘Sonny, when these pumps were new, your grandpa was still learning to drive.’ Everyone laughed, and from then on, the regulars called it ‘the never-changing pump’.

4. At Chevron, every afternoon around closing time, a little dog would appear out of nowhere and dash into the parking lot. He’d sniff around the pumps, then sit down right next to the cash register, as if waiting for someone. One day, an old delivery driver pulled up and asked the attendant, ‘Who’s been feeding that dog?’ The attendant smiled and replied, ‘Oh, he just likes to hang out here. Nobody really knows who feeds him.’ The driver shook his head with a grin and said, ‘I guess some things are better left unsolved!’
