shutting down generator with air conditioner running

I know the ideal scenario would be to shut off the A/C at the thermostat prior to turning off the generator, but in practice I'm sometimes pulling into a gas station with the generator and air running...

Not a great idea. You'd be better off to leave everything running. Find a pump away from people who will have you arrested for it.

Then every state is different. I'm in Oregon, no self-serve, engine off. But pulled in one time and for some reason I forgot to kill A/C and generator. Attendant asked it that was a generator running. That was allowed and pumped away.
