I worked full serve gas stations for about 3 years in high school, and only ONCE did I ever get tipped. I was a hell of a jockey too....I was told that the cost of oil, trans fluid, whatever included the cost for me to put it in so I always did it. I helped change tires, put in any fluids that we sold, changed fuses, even ran cigarettes out to the car if they bought a pack.
The biggest tip I ever got? $2. And that was after I checked EVERY SINGLE fluid level in the car, tire pressures and fuses when some grandma told me she was driving to Vancouver, and if her car broke down it was because I didn't check or add fluids properly.
