One of my 16 year old jobs was doing the same thing. You failed to mention the view you'd sometimes have when reaching and leaning way over as you washed off the front windshield of some of those drivers of the female type. Shame on me đź«Łtamrock,
Good memories of when I was a 'gas jockey' on Cape Cod in 1960. In those days, as part of regular service, we checked the oil, tire pressure, washed the windows and checked the belts. Sometimes, even got tipped !! Fat chance of that service today.

not to mention the free premiums a customer got with a fill-up like drinkware, dishes, mugs, ashtrays, etc. A friend of mine used to have a Phillips 66 station here and still had an old sign from the 60's that said "Two old Indian head pennies free with fill-up". It was better times back then.tamrock,

And sometimes when the spout cutter got dull, you'd squish the can trying to push it in!Can't really say a lot outside of it's a top lid off the old 1970s-80s 1 quart motor oil cans made of a cardboard tube that had the metal lids crimped on the top and bottom. You would use a special spout that you'd puncture into the metal top to pour in to the oil port generally on top of one of the valve covers on your engine. For whatever reason I still have one of those old spouts in an old tool box. Can't see why I need to hang on to it other than maybe show it to my grandson and tell him another story about the ways things used to be.
