After my meeting I walked back to my car parked at this gas station and my phone started to ring. So I spent about 15 minutes on the phone around my car taking care of business.
As I finished a woman came out to me from the store and told me that this is private property and she has been watching me "walking around" and this is private property . During this time I was around my car walking up and down as I was on the phone. I also took a picture of the STREET to better remember it, and I was told I cannot do that either.
I must say I did not know that in America on a private property ( gas station), one will be asked to leave for taking care of a15 minute phone call. This is a very bad area of town and this gas station and the store is very run down and needs a renovation, so I do understand that it attracts people who truly are just loitering and being there without a purpose.
But it is very sad that normal people are asked to leave for nothing, for the fact that I took a phone call. I was planning to get my gas tank filled in my car here today after my meeting , for the fact that this gas station's gas prices are truly way cheaper than anywhere else in the area. In fact I used to come here a long time ago, when I used to live in the area. But after this experience I decided to get more expensive gas somewhere else, and it is worth for me to pay a few cents more just to be let alone in peace making my phone calls at a gas station.
I attached a picture of the gas station that I found on the internet, not that they tell me that I am not allowed to take pictures.
