Washingtonian here; I just prefer to pump it myself. I don’t have to wait for someone to come over after I’ve been there for 5+ minutes while the attendant services other customers, I don’t have to wait for them to come back after the gas has stopped pumping, and all this waiting time compounds if the station’s busy.

It’s not that I don’t like waiting in general, it’s just that it’s a task that generally doesn’t require waiting in my day-to-day so I find it irksome.
