mechanics

so i've decided i don't really like mechanics. last week my battery died in my car. simple thing to fix, eh? just get a new battery, install it and i'm all set. i take my car up to the local dealership at 9 am. they are going to replace the battery, change the oil and perform a state inspection. at 4 pm when my car is "ready," i get there and the assistant manager brings my car out and says, "uhmm... there's something wrong with your car." now we all now one of the mechanics or run guys usually brings out the car. so, i'm a little worried that the assistant manager brought out my car. i'm like what's wrong with it? and he begins to go into all of this technical language that my dad probably wouldn't understand. and i'm like well let's fix it. so, i have to bring the car back because it's too late to work on it this day and my ride has already left. so i bring it back the next day and get a new guy who i have to explain everything over again. the new guy explains that the car can't be inspected until the problem is fixed. (do i look dumb? i don't think i do.) so, they fix the problem and my car is ready at 2 pm. funny thing, no inspection was done.

which brings me to this morning. i wake up extra early and take the car back up there for the inspection because if it doesn't pass i want to yell at the right people. they don't have any more state inspection stickers and won't have any for 10 days. no other state inspection places are open at 7 am. so now i have to wait till my lunch hour. well at least i'm getting an extra 30 minutes in on the job, right?

argh! i hate mondays and mechanics!
