They will still come out and help you. There are handi-capped drivers, elderly, and (sigh) those that don't know how. There are those inside the retail section of the station and those about cleaning the interior and exterior of it. I visit the self serve down the street and don't think I've seen any less than five staff on shift.
But, even if the argument about jobs does hold water, how the heck does one still not know how? Isn't this taught during driving lessons? How can you spend a life time driving and never leave a state? How do you not know the most basic information about your car?
This is ludicrous and mind boggling.

I agree that if you can't pump your own gas you have been living a very sheltered life. I know you are from Canada so I am not sure if you realize
just how busy a N.J. gas station can be and how many pumps some stations
have. Some station here have 5 or 6 or more attendants pumping gas almost
non stop. So the jobs thing does hold water in a time when jobs are getting
harder to come by.
