The Oregon politicians and governor just passed a bill and signed into law allowing self service gas pumping...

Once again proving that establishment dems DO NOT care about workers or jobs, as started by Bill Clinton with NAFTA and GATT, which sent factory jobs to Asia and Mexico as welk as customer service call centers to India. Then attempted by Obama with TPP, which Trump stopped.

Good.
I hate full service gas stations and actively avoid them even if the gas price is lower than a self serve.

@Pikachu When I was an attendant in the early 90's, I was making the equivalent of $20-$25 an hour with comission and tips, even though my base pay was onlg $5 an hour. Those jobs are not mere "elevator attendant" jobs, people make REAL money pumping gas.

You missed my point. Maybe elevator attendants were making money had over fist, i don't know.
The fact is that certain jobs are just outdated.
Like the lamp lighters buddy mentioned.

@Pikachu Outdated? Full service courtesy is never outdated, numerous people appreciate it, specially the elderly and disabled.

I mean, i'm sure people said the same thing about elevator attendants lol.
But i take your point about the elderly and disabled.
