A popular debate among neighborhood chat groups always revolves around getting gas at a convenience store- and going inside the store while your vehicle is filling up. Recently someone asked Wawa via a Tweet this very question, and they replied. Their Twitter account said “Affirm” meaning that customers ARE indeed permitted to leave their vehicles to get gas with the attendant while they go inside. This has perturbed many fans as it is often considered to be rude and selfish. People are waiting for an empty gas pump, and a patron is taking a leisurely shopping trip while their vehicle occupies a space long after the pump shuts off. Combine this with the usual blocking off of pumps when the store is short-staffed, and you have a reduced amount of working gas pumps.

There you have it- Wawa says you can be rude and selfish. Is it really that hard to park your car after you get gas and do your shopping though?

Anyway, please feel free to debate if you think this is acceptable and okay!
