Exxon

The Air/​Water Dispenser
OK can I do a review on just this. This is the best Air/​Water machine in my area that I found.
My new fancy Subaru has this low pressure light for my tires and in a panic i went all around to 3 stations trying to find a meter that even worked. I figured this is is a well lit station it should have a decent machine and I was correct. I pulled the car in facing the machine. You swipe a credit card and it’s a whopping $ 1.50 now :(pretty sad just for air. But what you do is you set on the machine the pressure that your tires are supposed to be so look for that number first so you ready to go. then when you begin to pump the air it will check the pressure. When it reaches the correct pressure, it will light up and make a sound so you know. This makes it easy and it does help if you have a spotter.
As for the gas station; I can’t really say much. Overpriced, well lit. check
for best gas prices. You can enter from South Mopac feed or after you turn onto Duval and the entrance also fees into Time Warner Cable

This place is so bad… Half the time the credit card readers at the pump don’t work so I have to go prepay.
THEN I am stuck with the SLOWEST pumps I have ever seen… It takes over ten minutes to fill my tank… That is totally ridiculous. Of the few times I’ve been here, I only filled up entirely one time — and that was only because I didn’t have someplace to be.

Okay, this is a lazy review for me. The Exxon next door turned into a 7-​Eleven. Slurpee time! Better snacks! Better products!
It works out very well for everyone involved. The staff seem like they’re happier with the new change. It’s more convenient than it ever was before. I may be moving soon, but this will still be a close location. And I do love a good Slurpee.

One star because ever since it turned into 7eleven, I’ve had to go inside and get a receipt for my gas. This is very inconvenient. Please replace the paper in the pumps.
Two stars because the gas prices are reasonable compared to others in the area.

The gas prices here are always reasonable (unlike some nearby), and the interior is clean with many choices of chips, supplies, beer, etc…
With others who have written, I agree that the service leaves something to be desired. The employees visibly don’t care to be here, and with some not doing anything behind the counter, there will be a line of people at one cashier. That needs to be rectified.
But… It’s a gas station, and I’ve been to much much much worse.

Awful. Absolutely awful! I hate having to resort to this inconvenience store, especially if I need to go inside for a purchase. As usual, 3 employees in the store and only one register is open. Happens to me too many effin times when I’m in a hurry.
I tell you the truth, 8 people in line and one register is open with 3 employees behind the counter. Yes I’m pissed now just thinking about it but I need to vent. Damn!
Have you ever heard of Customer Service?

Oh for the love of God! I promised not to go back but I was running late and did not have time to go out of my way as usual to pick up a few things. This place is staffed as poorly as one could.
One employee (Utopia?), wow. Stay away. What a miserable place to shop and I assume work!

Strange and fun encounter at the Tigermart:
Couple in front of me obviously spent day at lake or springs.
Clerk: to girl «What happened, you fall asleep in the tanning bed?»
Girl: smiling, «no, was out in the sun a little too long. He (boyfriend) is now thinking ‘I told you so.’»
Clerk: sarcastically, «What did you use for protection, baby oil?»
Me: Ears perking up
Girl: «Actually, nothing. It was kind of a spur of the moment thing.»
Clerk: «Oh, nothing! You know you’ve doubled your chance of skin cancer.»
Girl: slightly astonished, looks at me.
Me: cracking up, trying to help her find humor in this odd encounter.
Clerk: «If you keep this up you will look 75 by the time your 50.»
Me: cracking up and relishing this strange moment.
Girl: «Thanks I appreciate…»
Clerk says something I missed.
Girl: «oh, now you’re saying if I live that long.» The couple begins to leave.
Clerk: «Enjoy your night.»
Me: «Yes, ENJOY!»
Clerk: to me «You know the skin is the largest organ in the body.»
Me: «Yeah, I know. I grew up in the 70’s. We never paid attention to SPF.»
Clerk: «Yeah, I was little in the 80’s. Parents didn’t bother with that with their kids then either. I blame my parents if I get cancer.»
Me: «Ok, goodnight.»
I saw the girl as I left and gave her a disbelieving look but I just couldn’t stop laughing. I don’t know, maybe it’s just me, but I found it all oddly humorous. Three stars for making me laugh.

I didn’t have the problems most people had here. Went over lunch and was in and out in no time.

Time is at an absolute standstill as soon as you walk into this Tiger Mart. I think part of their customer service policy is to only have one cashier for every 20 people waiting in line and this cashier has to have an utter distain for life and the items you are purchasing more than anything imaginable. I now understand without a doubt what purgatory is like. Standing in line for 15 minutes while you wait for another patron to cash in their lotto tickets just to buy 10 more. This must be what its like when madness starts to set in. I go from shock, to anger, to laughing uncontrollably to myself. I might have found the true motivator to stop smoking, cause not only is that taking days off from my life, but so is stopping by this Exxon to buy a pack of cigarettes and a drink.
