That’s actually how “Citgo” got its name, because workers on the sewing machines would “sit and go”.

I don’t think that’s true: “In 1959, the remaining oil and natural gas companies were reformed as Cities Service Oil Company. In 1964, Cities Service changed its marketing brand by introducing the name CITGO — keeping the first syllable of its name and ending with GO to imply power, according to the CITGO website.” source

Interesting Fact: Kenmore Square is named in honor of the original factory of Kenmore brand appliances. The Kenmore company got its start manufacturing sewing machines a building where the building that supports the Citgo sign now stands.
