About this location

A few stories people tell about this place

1. At Chevron, customers often noticed an unusual occurrence late at night. Whenever a delivery driver approached the pump, their dog would start barking frantically from inside the car, even though it never did so before. One night, a delivery driver arrived with his little poodle. The dog went nuts as usual, but when he looked around, everyone else was calmly filling up their tanks. Turned out, the dog only reacted to the reflection of its own furry self in the pump’s glass door. Since then, Chevron installed a funny sign reading ‘Beware: our pumps may cause canine hallucinations.’

2. At Chevron, one morning a regular found something peculiar in his car’s gas tank cap. Instead of dirt or debris, there lay a small, handwritten note reading: ‘Fill up and drive carefully.’ Curious, he showed it to another customer, an older gentleman who chuckled and said, 'Ah, Chevron must be hiring new interns!' Soon enough, everyone knew about it—some filled up with a smile, others left shaking their heads. But no one ever complained again.

3. At Chevron, every now and then someone would spot a mysterious item on the parking lot. One day, a delivery driver discovered a small, wrapped package left near the pumps. Curious, he opened it to find… a free coffee coupon! Turned out, some well-meaning neighbor had been leaving them for regulars. Now everyone stopped by Chevron not just for gas but also for that unexpected treat.

4. At Chevron, during early morning shifts, employees occasionally heard a strange announcement over the loudspeaker: ‘Attention, ladies and gentlemen—your vehicle may be experiencing temporary invisibility. Please proceed with caution.’ One day, an elderly neighbor pulled up in his car and asked curiously, ‘Is it true that my car was invisible last night?’ The attendant smiled and replied, ‘Only for a few seconds, sir.’ The old man nodded knowingly, ‘Good thing I didn’t try to park in that spot then!’
