My highlight of the day

So I went to Pepboys to get some work done on my tires and, as I'm relaxed in the waiting area, I hear the familiar sound of a swooooosh going off in the parking lot. I thought to my self: hmm, that sounds like my car but these idiots are not stupid enough to drive it like that here. I stepped out to the lot and found this fn mechanic driving my car like it was Tokyo drift. I lost my temper and ran up to him to almost punch him the face and swore at him like a drunk being kicked out of a bar. I yelled at him to get me his manager and as he was doing so a buddy of mine, who works there, jumped in and asked me to calm and down, take it easy.. blah blah blah... Anyway, after I was able to get my bearings straight and calm down, I decided to forgive the guy and not have him lose his job. At the end, I even asked him if he at least had fun, which he replied: "yeah, it was". Fn idiot, this is exactly why I don't trust any place doing work on my car, man, if only I had all the tools in my garage.

thats one reason on my list of 8,124 NOT to go to pepboys for anything.
 
all the pepboys around where i live are full of retards i wouldnt go there to even get my tire psi checked.
 
i remembered one time i was picking up a friend(pepboy manager)off work at pepboy. we both was mad cause 1 of the merchanic lost the fuel filter bolt...took us 2 hours to find that bolt(my friend is closing the shop) it was late around 12am(shop closed at 10pm).
 
+1 and i used to work there.... i was one of the few who A) knew how to properly drive a car over 20hp and B) never took any car out for a "joy ride" or goosed it or anything like that
 
i dont go to generic auto places for ANYTHING aside from small parts/car batteries etc.
NEVER do i have them do work for my car. ill go to specialty auto shops that i know and trust, or come highly recommended.

you may have a frirend there, but i'd still never trust a pepboys or walmart or costco or wtver shop to work on my car for ANYthing.
 
I know what you mean. It's like someone touching your woman. I left my Santa Fe at a Tires Plus just to get an alignment and somehow they drove it 24 miles. Nobody, not even the manager can explain it. Yeah, sure.
