Filled the rest up with 93, drove the remaining 45 minutes of my commute reeking of gas, and have never been to that station again. Took a few days before the smell fully left my interior.

In summation, fuck full-service stations. Let the people who obsess over their cars do it themselves. The other 95% of lazy-asses can let someone else fill up their Camry's.
Most of the time I try to let the classic car guys pump their own gas but we can get a hefty fine for that. The nicer the car the more precaution measures I take.
