As a former technician for The Department of Weights and Measures in NY, my only comment is BS! Checking pumps should not be a COVID affected activity...but what do I know in this day and age.
Pump validation is simply a matter of pumping 5 gallons into a calibrated canister. If the pump was within limits (4 or 8 oz. if I recall?), the pump got a new sticker. If the pump was over or under, the station owner was notified and the pump was supposed to be taken out of service, and reported for followup. Highly technical.

That the pumps were SO out of whack to the detriment of the customer bears notice, and reporting.

Long since asking/considering...Throttle Guard?
