“I switched to Shell since the CAA discount and the high octane gas...recently I have had the pleasure to be assisted by a young lady named Harpreet whilst stopping by. I have to say she is very pleasant and attentive to all customers as I am someone who watches such service as my wife worked retail for years. Harpreet makes eye contact with customers and never gets rankled regardless of the workload. She needs to be commended for her pleasant disposition and positive attitude.”
