About this location

A few stories people tell about this place

1. At Chevron, customers started noticing something odd one foggy morning. A voice over the intercom announced, ‘If you see a unicorn outside, it’s just our new delivery driver—don’t be alarmed.’ Customers soon learned that whenever there was a delay in deliveries, the unicorn would appear more frequently, causing traffic jams and puzzled neighbors. Eventually, someone asked the manager if they could hire a real delivery driver—and ever since then, Chevron has been known for its friendly pranks and good humor.

2. One chilly night, a delivery driver pulled up to Chevron and noticed an eerie glow inside the gas station's usually dimly lit convenience store. As he approached the door, he heard soft laughter coming from behind the counter. Curious, he peeked around the corner and saw an old man with twinkling eyes pouring coffee into thermoses. ‘Ah,’ said the man, smiling warmly, “I’m just preparing for my neighbors’ morning rush.” The delivery driver relaxed, realizing it was simply Mr. Jenkins, a regular who ran the place after hours. They both shared a laugh over hot chocolate before heading off their separate ways—another quiet night in the city turned cozy.

3. At Chevron, one day after closing hours, a gas station attendant heard a strange sound coming from the bathroom. Peering inside, he saw a familiar face in the mirror—only it wasn’t his own. Curious, he approached closer and realized it was just an old man shaving. Turns out, the guy had been using the station’s bathroom for years without anyone noticing—he was always there early morning or late at night. The attendant smiled, thinking how sometimes life plays tricks on us like that, even at a simple gas station. From then on, they became friendly neighbors.

4. At Chevron, a regular complained loudly one afternoon: ‘Why does it take forever for you to fill my tank?’ The attendant smiled and replied, ‘Because sir, we’re filling your patience.’ A delivery driver growled impatiently, ‘And why is it taking so long today?!’ The attendant winked and said, ‘Today, sir, we’re filling your lunch break.’
