If you want to do a little harm mitigation in your American convenience store shopping, Wawa is owned 40%-50% by its associates via an ESOP plan. QuikTrip is generally rated as an excellent place to work and their founding family seems to be not nearly as toxic. 7-Eleven is at least wholly owned by what used to be their Japanese subsidiary. Finally, Circle K was bought out by Couche-Tard, a Canadian company. If you’re on a road trip, by all means stop into Buc-cee’s for the bathrooms, as that’s an obvious loss leader and you get to literally piss on them.

The wait was lengthy, but definitely worth it.
