What type of service location did you visit? Briefly describe it.

I will post about an oil pump in our area. Octane and diesel are available at this pump. This oil pump is located next to Tamanna Cinema Hall on Rangpur Road. It is a small filling station. The name of this filling station is Mr. Nisat Filling Station. The name of the owner of this filling station is Md. Ahidul Haque Sarkar. Currently, there is an oil shortage in oil pumps in Bangladesh. So many filling stations in Saidpur are now closed. This filling station is one of them.

Operational history & Location (Steem Atlas pin)

Mr. Nisat Filling Station is located in the main city of Saidpur. It is located next to the market. There are many restaurants around it. On the opposite side of this filling station is Amjadia Residential Hotel. I don't know when this filling station was built. This filling station is currently closed. However, when it is open, oil is available here 24 hours a day. This filling station is not very large. One person can collect oil here. They can supply oil to fewer customers. Most of the time, motorcycles and pickup vans come here to collect oil. The owner of this filling station is Md. Ahidul Haque Sarkar. He runs this filling station. He has several workers here. Diesel and octane are available at this filling station. There is a small flower garden here. There is also a car parking area. There is a separate room for the manager to sit. There is also a small bathroom.

Type of work & Workers’ lifestyle

This filling station is owned by one person. His name is Md. Ahidul Haque Sarkar. A manager and two employees work under him. The employees' job is to fill the car with oil. This job requires a lot of patience. Again, it is necessary to know the correct amount of oil. Those who work at the filling station. They are always alert. Because octane and diesel are flammable. If the employees are a little careless here. Then sometimes a big accident can happen. The work of a filling station is simple but working here is very dangerous. Sometimes accidents are reported at many filling stations. Workers are needed for all kinds of work. All work requires hard work. Lower-class employees have to work a little more. Their lifestyle is a little different from that of managers.

Environmental impact & (With pictures + videos)

The filling station I visited is located next to my house. This filling station is small in size. People who come to the market here collect oil from this filling station on their motorcycles and pickups and trucks that deliver products to the market. This filling station has a separate parking area for cars. There are two oil pumps here. One is octane and the other is diesel. Filling stations cause a lot of damage to our environment. That is why filling stations are built a little away from residential areas. Octane and diesel are flammable. A small spark in these can cause a fire. This can cause a lot of accidents. In addition, oil pumps pollute the soil. Filling stations pollute the water. That is why filling stations are often built in empty spaces.
