4. after work I went to get a tire, and they tried to sell me a brake job.
I waited in the waiting room, reading my magazine, for about 40 minutes. THen I looked outside and saw that they hadn't even moved my car from where I'd parked it. I was generally the only one in the waiting room, and I didn't see a whole lot of busyness in the garage. They were finally finished after over an hour had gone by, and I had to race home, scarf down some food, and race back out the door to make it to a meeting. When I went to the counter, they told me that the guy looked at my brakes and that I needed new brakes, then handed me a printout itemizing several hundred dollars worth of brake work. Man asked me if I'd like to set up an appointment for my brakes and I declined: I don't know if my brakes really need work, and if they do, a friend will do it for me.
That fucking place really pissed me off.
