Car Mechanics (sigh)
It was raining today off and on today. Needed to get gas and was in a rush and the only pump available was not under cover like an idiot I pulled up to it and started to fuel up only for a heavy down pour to start. Within minutes, I had enough and stopped but my alarm clicker wouldn?t click to shut the alarm off. So, I am just getting rained on and looking like a fool. I asked gas station attendant for help and he sent me to the mechanics in the back.
To make a long story short standing in the rain for 20 minutes while the guys try to disconnect the alarm, they ask can you leave it here. I said yes, and walk to trolley only to realize I had no cash. Pulled my cell phone out from my drench pocket book and it didn?t work.
Trolley pulls up and I tell the driver my car broke down and how much is it to X place and do you take credit cards since I only have 2.00 dollars in change. He said no to the Credit Cards and said I didn?t have enough but he would let it slide. I said thanks.
A few of hours later get a call from the gas station that my car is fixed. I go pick it up and pay 110.00 for them disconnecting the alarm. I thought to myself that it was expensive but a tow would have cost the same to get the car to my mechanics and said thank you.
Now here is are the questions, they had my car for few hours. Why in the fuck is my seat changed including lumbar settings, all mirrors, and the stereo was to set some acid rock station.
or
Why do car mechanics feel the need to change things just to drive a car into a bay?
