Your Mechanic Probably Hates You: Part 3
Me: “As you can see there is a bulge in your brake line.”
Customer: “So what does that mean?”
Me: “If you don’t get it fixed, it will eventually burst and you could lose your brakes entirely.”
Customer: “Yeah…I’m just not seeing that as a possibility.”
Me: “Ma'am, not only is it a possibility, it is going to happen if it is not replaced.”
Customer: “I just don’t see how that would happen.”
In my head: Ya know what? You’re probably right. Why would I know something like that? I can tell by your well manicured hands and the current state of your vehicle that you are clearly a better judge of your vehicles safety than me.
Customer: “I’m driving back to Dallas this week anyways so I’ll just have my dad look at it.”
In my head: I hope your brakes fail and you are completely unharmed,but still learn a valuable lesson.
