A few stories people tell about this place
1. It was a chilly morning in October when a delivery driver pulled up to Mobil station. The sun had barely risen over the city skyline, casting an eerie glow on the pumps and sign. As he approached the counter, the attendant asked him if he needed any help. With a straight face, the delivery driver replied, 'Just fill it up—my tank’s empty!' Turns out, his truck was fully loaded with coffee for the office. A regular joke among them, but that day everyone got a good laugh.
2. It was a chilly morning in October when a delivery driver pulled up to Mobil and exclaimed, ‘I bet you’re open twenty-four hours!’ The attendant, grinning, replied, ‘We are indeed, but only because our sign says so.’ The delivery driver laughed sheepishly and said, ‘Well, I’ll just have to believe it then.’ A few minutes later, as he was leaving, a neighbor walked in and asked if they sold coffee. The attendant grinned again and replied, ‘Only if our sign says so too!’
3. It was a chilly morning in October when a delivery driver pulled up to Mobil and noticed something odd: every time he filled his truck with gas, the radio would start playing his favorite song. Finally curious, our delivery driver asked the station attendant what was going on. The guy just shrugged and said, ‘That’s just how Mobil knows you’re always coming back.’ As for the music, turns out it was just an old cassette tape stuck in the radio—an inside joke between the owner and his neighbors.
4. It was a foggy night in November when an old man walked into the Mobil station and asked for directions. The attendant looked puzzled and replied, 'Sir, you're standing right next to the map!' Just then, a delivery driver approached, rubbing his eyes sleepily. ‘Hey,’ he said, ‘I’ve been here three times tonight already!’ The old man laughed heartily, pointing towards the gas pumps: ‘Ah, sonny, I must be lost in thought—again.’
