"Full Service" Chevron
Ah, the remember the 'good old days' when you could pull into a gas station and receive prompt, courteous service right at your car? Well, there's a new version of Service Attendant at the Chevron Station at 2200 Telegraph and Grand in downtown Oakland!
Within moments of pulling into this station and getting out of your car, a service representative will come out to greet you! Is he going to ask if you want your tire pressure checked or your windows washed? Nope! He's going to tell you a story and shake you down for your cash! Do these guys work for the station? The gas station doesn't seem to do anything to discourage them, they must be in some kind of affiliate or proxy service arrangement!
Chauvi's has noticed that women get special treatment and will be escorted wherever they walk around the station by these Service Attendants.
Sorry the photos are of poor quality. We will update with one of our newer cameras soon!
