Staff etiquette needs changing. Wrong information given out, and at least one member of staff appears to have an attitude problem and should not be working there. If staff can not keep pace with a busy environment then they should not be working there.
I have used this petrol station from time to time, over about twenty years, so will have visited it hundreds of times. It is true that there sometimes can be a severe delay between the staff "switching on" the petrol pump, even at times that are not busy.
Astonishingly they have also refused to switch the pump on because I have been filling a Jerry can before, and have also been trying to fill the car with the boot open. According to the operator it is against their policy to allow this.
As a recreational pilot and sailor I have filled up fuel cans all around the UK and overseas, and have never had any problems from anywhere else either filling up certified/official Jerry cans, or filling up with car windows or boot open.
Interesting because this is never an issue with any other petrol station, including petrol stations of the same brand of fuel supplier, and the supermarket themselves.
My opinion from what I have seen is that at least one member of staff is on a "power" trip, and is giving erroneous information.
So for me this otherwise "average" petrol station gets a poor rating on balance.
Tesco / Esso .. you need to improve your staff training or selection process (based on at least one member of staff). Whilst *most* pumps are switched on in under a minute, it does take longer then most petrol stations. However excessive time delays in operation of the pumps does happen frequently.

There should be a better way than allowing someone fill up with petrol then go in and do a shop, this holds up people waiting to buy petrol.
Do not be fooled, this is not a Tesco petrol station.

Bad experience in this Tesco’s very rude older lady on the tills today. I was gobsmacked. Some people shouldn’t work in retail.
