I don't trust ANYONE!!! When I take one of our cars to get the oil changed, I stand at the window and watch them. I always feel like I'm being scammed.

^^^^ LOL, when I was a mechanic..I hated when people did that. all the guys at my old shop came up with a few practicle jokes to play on people starring out the window. we had these rubber bouncy balls....needless to say it would scare the person sooooo bad.

that and snow balls in winter.

AHAHAHAHAHAH AHHA HAHAHA AHAHA that's so funny!!! It's like blood pressure, but he's a mechanic, so they said oil pressure!!!! AHAHAHA AHHAAAH HAHAHA but seriously, I don't really trust anywhere at all anymore that's a major corporation. One of my friends works at an Arby's right next to a Jiffy Lube. The kids who work there come in and talk to him during lunch and tell him about how they get paid extra to **** up peoples cars so they have to come back to them with major repairs. Plus this one place I used to take my car to couldn't get my window back up(why the **** does it need to be down anyways?) cause my switch was broken at the time, so they tore off my trim and now it pops out of my door panel. They said they would glue it but I just said **** it and left. Haven't been there since.

Damm thats not right. I do all my work myself and if I can't do something I got two ASE techs waiting in the wings i can call for help.. And One ATSG certified trans guy in kentucky so its all good

I watched this guy at the oil changing place drop a quart of oil, Almost on my car. He like tried to catch it and kinda juggled it. He finally caught it. He lived.

Damn, you're mean...
