Pep Boys Fail
So yesterday after work I decided to go get the cars tire fixed. I didn’t want to drive on the space saver spare any more then totally necessary. I figured since it was really close I would just go up to the local Pep Boys. Yeah that was my first mistake. I checked in and told them I just needed the tire fixed and might as well get the oil changed while they were at it. I was told to go wait in the waiting area…and I waited….and waited…and waited…. I gave them my key at 3:50pm. Finally around 6:30 I went to inquire as to my cars status. First the guy couldn’t find my paperwork and then said oh its done. Proceded to start processing the paperwork and hand me my keys….which weren’t my keys. He looked though more stuff and turns out no one has even looked at my car yet.
So I wen’t back and waited…and waited…and waited….about 45 minutes later he calls me over and says I am all set. Processes “my” paperwork and says the total is 72$. Now when I checked in they gave me the invoice and I SHOULD of remembered that it was a bit lower then 72$ but by that point I just wanted to get the hell out of there so I ran my card and he gave me my receipt and keys…which….yeah were neither MY receipt or keys. <HEAD DESK>
SO….I have to get the charge taken off by the Mgr. and then go back…and yes…wait…and wait…and wait. FINALLY at like 8 my car is done. Which again is just there to fix a flat tire and change the oil. The only saving grace was that the service Mgr. took the charge for fixing the tire off the bill and gave me 10% off on the oil change. But still…it was a REALLY long day. It probably wouldn’t of been SO bad but I had been up since like 5:30 and worked 7-3 before heading over so it was just a LONG day and by that point I was really HUNGRY. We really didn’t have any dinner plans and by that point would of taken a while to make anything, but after I left the Pep Boys I saw a Boston Marked just a block up the road so brought home a chicken feast for Meg and I to share.
Needless to say today I pretty much took it easy other then food shopping and making a darn tasty Vegetable Soup for dinner (with fruit salad still waiting us for desert)
