You know it really sucks when you drive over halfway across town to be able to get a soft drink when the store says it's 24 hours and nobody's there there's a store closed sign but online it says 24 hours on their door there are no hours posted on the hour sign they're all blank Just a tiny little note with a store closed on white printer paper that's wrinkled and there's a car parked in its parking lot like the attendant is here and there's been a homeless man outside that has been waiting to buy a warm cup of coffee and then there's myself who drove clear across town while gas prices are almost $5:20 a gallon for 91 octane but I wanted a drink. So now that I've wasted probably a little over a gallon of gas as it supposed to closest 24 hour listed gas station I have wasted 5 gallons of gas and the 22 minutes of time just to drive on over here. And now that I'm all done writing this review pulled in the parking lot across the street as this is very upsetting that businesses keep screwing over the customers ever since COVID 19 mandates took effect and have not been relinquished for getting back to normal seems to be one of the things owners don't care to take 5 minutes to update their business hours. This is not the first time I've showed up at this 24-hour gas station and it's been closed multiple times before and it's been varying times late at night 2:00 a.m, 3:00 a.m. around..... But to be fair this is not the only business as the Arco the circle k also do it but the only one that I've seemed to notice that has finally updated the hours (I'm pretty sure because of my consistent reviews of displeasure and pure and utter dumbfoundedness in the total lack of respect for there patrons time, money and complete lack responseability of the time that they've wasted and then compound that by the number of peoples time that they've stop by and there travel time and expense all because the owner, franchisee entrepreneur/boss whatever you want to call the person to access there yelp page and simply adjust there online hours but they haven't been updated or bother, which is not hard to do remotely and at the comfort of there home.... With no loss of creature comfort to them and less work then what a unsavory working class people who now have to hope that there's enough gas to get to another gas station and let's not speak about the needy who are homeless and managed to walk during this 45° weather for a hot coffee only to have to turn around and not get the warmth they desire. I would not be surprised if one of them finally gets frustrated enough to take it out on the store or the store/franchises owners property or it's employee because if I even have that thought cross in my mind and I at least have my Car to sleep in ......Then I could only imagine not having shelter and walking cold following the results of my government cell phone showing me all to get that warm cup of coffee that they decided that would be there bright part of the day And then be upset/let down and out that it was not available! And again I digress it is not just this location or business, but it is most chain commercials since COVID. There's nothing I would like more than for it to get back to the Southern California way and have 24-hour restaurants go back to 24-hour restaurants gas stations that list accurate hours and go back to 24-hour gas stations if that's what t set.

Sorry for the diatribe, but only a few straws away from this camel's back being broken and wish people would have more consideration especially if they want those said people to spend money at their place of business...... What happened to customer satisfaction...... Just about all businesses seem to get a one-star rating nowadays

Beware! Scam! Pumped gas the needle did not move at all.
