Impeccable Service At A Gas Station

A staff member immediately steps forward, hands outstretched to signal where the car should stop. He bows respectfully before walking briskly to the driver’s window, thanking him in Japanese: “Thank you for coming.” He pauses, then says, “I have seen you somewhere before,” recognising the driver. The text on trhe video reveal that the driver is President Yone of Carport Marzen, a prominent Japanese auto parts distributor.

“I knew it. And I appreciate you coming today,” the staff member says. He asks whether the car requires premium fuel, and after confirming, he bows his head in acknowledgment. Every action that follows is carried out with precision and care.

Using a cloth, he opens the fuel tank to prevent any spillage. He then carefully handles the nozzle, filling the car fully while the camera pans over the spotless gas station, showing it to be spacious and orderly.

Once the tank is full, he secures the nozzle and closes the fuel cap with the same attention to cleanliness and care. Returning to the driver, he expresses gratitude once again and asks which direction he intends to go, ensuring the car can safely merge into traffic. He looks both ways, confirms the road is clear, and only then allows the Lexus to drive off smoothly.
