The “Smallest Gas Station in the World”, Detroit Lake , Wisconsin 1930s

The city of Detroit lakes in the United States is notable for the fact that it once operated the world's smallest gas station. An article about this unusual structure was published in 1949 in the journal Science and Mechanics. The gas station was owned by J. M. Sauer and his sons, Roy and Lee. The interior of the workroom was so small that only one person could fit inside. However, a spiral staircase that led down to a larger room with a bathroom and a fuel tank.

The gas station was doing very well. The prosperity of the business was not hindered by a robbery in 1925, when attackers took away $ 750. The favorable location near the bus station brought additional income: many tourists were happy to take photos next to a small gas station.

The family business was destroyed by the Second world war. The Sauer brothers went to war, and when they came back, they tried to buy the gas station. However, the site was sold to the city for $ 500. Although the building was demolished, a copy of it can be seen at the Becker County Historical society.

lowkey trying to get a job in IT got me fucked up… this software company is hiring data center techs but you’d have to relocate to Madison, WI and I’m almost considering it, because every IT job here requires a BA and like minimum 2 years of experience, multiple IT certifications and all have like, 300+ people applying for the position and sometimes it feels impossible to break into :/
