I am all for fairness, same for all is no prob. If they wont turn the pump on til I remove my helmet I just lay the nozzle on the ground and ride off, they have to come out and put it back.
A gauntlet of fair weather boys in the petrol station this evening. Went in the shop just before me and made a predictable, lengthy, and frankly embarrassing scene when asked to remove their helmets.
They eventually did. So I pay and exit, the bikers are now sat on a nearby wall smoking fags while one said "Geoff won't be long he is only coming from widnes". So they were clearly intending to wait anyway and just wanted an excuse to argue with the garage guy...

I too find it a real faff I also wear glasses and the lid is a tight fit to get on my head and dislodges my earplugs. So you are at the pump wehre the feck am I supposed to put my lid when I take it off- certainly am not putting it on the floor covered in diesel.
But yes those lads were just being dicks for dicks sake.
I don't do rain or threat there of. dry rider only with no shame.
