Gas Station Bathrooms Used to be Spotless
Nowadays, people dread using gas station bathrooms. They’re some of the dirtiest places on the planet, and it’s hard to imagine that anyone actually bothers to clean them. (Unless you’re going somewhere like Wawa.) Believe it or not, gas stations once promised sparkling clean bathrooms for people to use. In the early 1900’s, gas stations even had billboards and colored ads saying things like “Registered Rest Rooms” and “Clean Restroom Crusade”. This campaign was actually aimed at women, who were traveling with their families and filling up the gas tank. But as time went on, gas stations relaxed a bit too much with their clean bathrooms, and it’s been a slippery slope ever since.
