Delta Gas

I wanted to share my experience at this gas station as a resident of Franklin Lakes. I’m a firm believer in being patient as some workers can have a bad day but this guy was intentionally trying to get under our skin. My mom went to fill up gas and I’m in the back row of the van so I guess he doesn’t see me but as soon as we park at one of the stations this guy throws his body on the car. My mom was like what’s that and I didn’t say anything as I was wondering the same as I’m staring at him. Then after he takes our card he tells my mom to move to the other side so we do so. He mumbles a few things under his tongue and tells us he doesn’t speak English. So my mom tells him what do you speak and he says Arabic. So she tells him where are you from and he says Egyptian when he’s Indian. Mind you, my mom is wearing a bandana wrapped on her head as a hijab. My mom still proceeds to get gas despite his actions and remarks but, he tells her I tried the card two times and it didn’t work. I’m in the back row of the van and I don’t see him punching any number or trying the card. He was rude! Someone needs to report this young Indian man whom I felt attacked by. This is a reoccurring issue

Following the review before me, this exact experience happened to me and I will not be returning. If you are a female just be aware when you go. The younger Indian man (who I have never seen before) took my card and connected me - the usual. When he went to give my card back, he put himself to my window and had his phone up to my face insisting I spoke to his friend on the phone. He kept saying "Say hi! Say how are you!" I could not understand either of their accents but he continuously insisted that I speak to the man on the phone that I did not know. I gave into the pressure after being afraid and said hello but nothing more. Eventually since I sat there confused for long enough, he told me to have a good day and apologized. This is so unacceptable on so many levels and it saddens me that I feel uncomfortable going back to a gas station that I have gone to for years. I worried that this was some sort of scheme or trafficking tactic to distract me, which these days is all too common. This man should not be allowed to work there.

Warning to other females..or just anyone who does not want their personal space completely violated. This was my first time going to this gas station. I pulled up, told the attendant to fill it regular etc..He got me set up..Once I was already hooked up to the pump, he walks up to my car and practically puts his whole upper half of his body in my window..and reaches his hand in with his phone..which I see is FaceTime with someone..He keeps saying to me "say Hi!" "Say how are you?". I was stunned and scared that this strang man was inches away from my face . I didn't know what to do..I told him "No thank you". He kept insisting I say hello. Once I said hello (hesitantly---while he is still inside of my car) he tells me to continue talking to whoever is on the phone. He told me talk to them for two minutes so he can continue to go help other people waiting for gas. I said no. He said "Just two minutes"..I said I was not comfortable. He grabbed the phone and walked away. I was scared to get mad. Here is this strange man inches away from me in my car. For all I know he has a knife and is going to tell me I had to talk to this person. I was so scared and confused. I didn't want to get out of the car. All I wanted was to pay and leave. I asked him his name when I was about to leave... It sounded like he said "amarit". I told him what he did was not okay and he made me feel so uncomfortable. I told him I do not know him or what he was doing but it was not okay. This man should not be working there.

NEVER going back. Overfilled my tank to the point it was pouring (not dripping) on the ground and had no clue this was a problem. Asked for a rag and he just stared at me blankly.

Reviewing as a warning to other women. I used to fill up here regularly until one of the attendants told me he had my car’s make, model, and license plate memorized. He recited my plate to me. Then he told me knows where I live and mentioned landmarks near my home. He also mentioned he’s seen me pull onto my street. I went to the Delta on Franklin Ave to avoid him, but he works there too, so now I’ll never go back to either Delta. Would not recommend any woman goes to these Delta gas stations by herself.
