You can pump your own in parts of Oregon now

My question for those opposed to self serve is, just because YOU don't want to pump your own, why do you want to force those who want to pump their own to have to wait for an attendant?

Allow me the answer on their behalf. I’m not one of “them.”

Someone who wants full serve is getting subsidized today since there is only one price. If they allow self serve, they will have to consciously choose the higher priced island.

Also, many if not most stations won’t even offer full serve if self serve is allowed, leaving those who don’t want to without the option.

Again, not my concern but can see the reasoning.

As for speed, I’ve had plenty of long wait times out of state waiting for slow self servers or even vacant cars. Waiting for the attendant is only an issue at a few super busy or under staffed stations. If I’m at one of those, I pull the gas cap and get my card ready to move the process along faster.
