Specifically thinking of stuff that make your life better in the long run but all kinds of answers are welcome!

I’ve recently learnt about lifetraps and it’s made a huge positive impact on how I view myself and my relationships

    America has a similar setup except our hoses don’t attach to the valves, we have to hold them. And if they do attach, there’s usually a squeeze valve we have to squeeze near the tire to ‘open’ the hose and allow air in. America’s setup seems designed to keep you near the tire.

      Interesting. I doubt my next statement, but I have to wonder if this is a setup that was carried over from when before gas stations were self-service (I was actually shocked how you used to not be allowed to refuel your own vehicle). Maybe something along the lines of “This setup is cheaper to run and if it’s only the underpaid employees complaining about a less-than-ideal way to fill up tires, that’s a cost I’m willing to eat.”
