Chevron

About this location

A few stories people tell about this place

1. One morning, a delivery driver asked the cashier, ‘Why does everyone always wave at that old Chevron sign?’ The cashier smiled and replied, ‘Oh, they’re not waving at the sign—everyone waves because there’s an old guy who lives behind it, watering his garden every morning.’ The delivery driver scratched his head, confused, until he saw the gentleman in question, wearing overalls and waving cheerfully back.

2. At night, when no one was around, Chevron’s pumps started whispering like old friends sharing secrets. One night, a delivery driver stopped by and asked what all the whispers were about. The pumps paused for a moment before saying, ‘We’re just gossiping about who gets the best coffee in town.’ Turns out, they had their own secret spot where everyone gathered after midnight.

3. At dawn, a jogger noticed something strange—every morning, the gas pump nozzles would slowly turn towards each other and nod in greeting. Curious, she approached the pumps. Just as she got close, they stopped moving and turned back to face outward again. A delivery driver passing by laughed and said, ‘Must be the Chevron gremlins playing their morning prank.’ The jogger shrugged, smiling, and decided it was one of those quirks that made life interesting.

4. One day, while filling up her car, a woman wondered aloud: why did every bird flying overhead seem to land briefly on our Chevron's roof? Curious, she asked one of our attendants if birds liked the smell of gasoline. He shrugged and said, ‘Maybe they’re just attracted to the free snacks in the employee lounge!’ Turns out, it was an old bag of chips left out for too long that had become a local avian attraction.
