I came here in 2012, only because this Sinclair gas station was the only designated Greyhound Bus stop closest to my destination in Robber's Cave Park. When I arrived there, the woman running the place had a very nasty attitude, and after five minutes waiting for our ride, we were rudely told not to hang out on the premises while we were on the phone informing our ride that we had arrived. After dealing on the phone with him, I went inside to purchase some snacks while we waited for our ride, and once I got inside, the woman behind the counter was on the phone complaining to whomever that "there were a couple guys from the Greyhound bus" that are "hanging out" at the gas station and that we "just wouldn't leave" and this was about ten, maybe fifteen minutes after just getting off the bus, mind you. We weren't even causing a disturbance---just waiting for our ride to get there. I angrily made my purchase and went back outside to wait for our ride some more. I told the person picking us up to please hurry as quickly as possible because the people running this gas station were unmanageable pricks, and were giving us an attitude just because we were waiting for our ride. After a bit of waiting, the woman came back out yet again for at least the sixth time, and forcibly removed us from the premises, so we went to the abandoned building next door to wait for someone to pick us up to take us to our destination. Coming back, we were getting our return tickets prepared to get on the Greyhound bus. When she asked me where I was going, I started to tell her that my final destination was in Columbus Ohio, and she got very belligerent with me and rudely told me to tell her what my destination was. Again, I just said Columbus, Ohio and she angrily wrote up the baggage claim check and with a very rude tone in her voice told me to put it on my luggage. I honestly never had to deal with such a place like that, and if this were the only gas station in all of Oklahoma, I would rather take the risk and run out of gas and walk to the next state to get more, than to stop here for a fillup. This place certainly does not deserve to be a Greyhound stopping point if they don't want people coming through their establishment that isn't buying gas or items from their little store. We were paying customers for both Sinclair and Greyhound, and yet we were still treated very rudely and unfairly. This woman does not deserve to be in a business where she has to deal with people, that's for certain. If you are in need of gas, heed my warning and go somewhere else. This old woman needs a swift kick in the a** as a wake-up call to learn how to properly conduct business with the public, and if she just doesn't want to learn, she needs to flippin' retire. I have never ever dealt with anyone like that, and I'm astonished and amazed that they're still in business. Go to hell, Sinclair Oil. Get some better people to run your gas stations if you know what's good for you guys. Why am I writing this review 5 years later? Because my original review of this place is nowhere to be found on the internet, and the fine people of McAleseter, Oklahoma or outside visitors to this place have the right to know the kinds of ungrateful dipwads that are running businesses out there.
