He tried but im not stupid
So i go to the muffler shop because i had a broken cat and no muffler he tells me 155 cash okay sounds good to me that was tuesday i go there today and he asked me how much he said it was gonna be i told him you said 110 for the cat and 45 for the muffler=155 he says sounds right.Go there during my lunch break to pick up the truck and he tells me it was 255 not 155 i said he was f$%#$%^ crazy. Im only 18 he thought he could screw me because im young what he didnt realize is that ive been working on fords since i was three, people just **** me off. In the end the sleeze ball had no choice but to take my 155 so my lesson never go to alexander city alabama's muffler shop.

I held the trouble light for him , handed him tools , and handed him parts when he pointed them out to me.
Best education I ever could ask for.
Thanks Dad , I still remember what you taught me.

I was three when I started working on cars. I didn't bug my dad. I handed him the wrenches he asked for. If I got the wrong size,he showed me.

Sounds like my experience with tires plus. I stopped in there to get my alignment done. I was quoted $135 for 3 years unlimited alignments. Dropped the truck off came back 2 hours later and they wanted $350. They decided to replace the alignment cams that I put in myself the night before. I work for a tire shop and when ever there is going to be an extra charge or something on the work order changes, I make sure to contact the owner and get the go ahead. To me its the right way to do business.

Pulled into Sooner Tire and parked on top of a 7up can with LF tire and waited in showroom for alignment. 45 mins later I was told my alignment was finished and I owed $59.95, when I was quoted $49.95 just 45 mins earlier. Walked out to truck...LF tire was still parked on top of 7up can, truck never even moved. Those guys are absolute jerks.
