Why QT is the Best Gas Station You walk up and the automatic doors slide open, allowing a burst of cool air to breeze past you. To your left are the snacks, and to your right, the drinks. Right in front of you lies the glorious checkout counter, glistening in the fluorescent lights. With rows upon rows of candy and chips and snacks galore, you know exactly where you are. You are at the QT gas station. The fountain drink station calls your name, each type of soda seeming to whisper, “Choose me!” as you stroll past. But something else catches your eye: the slushie machine. Red and blue, purple and green: there are just so many to choose from! You settle on a mix and reach for one of the lids and a straw. As you make your way back to the counter, you admire the clean, sparkling glass and spotless floors. Organization is all around and you feel at peace. You pay for the slushie and a few other snacks you may or may not remember picking up on your journey and depart with the echo of “Have a nice day!” You get in your car, sad to part with this place of snack heaven, but alas, you must go. Until next time QT. Until next time.
