Be nice to your mechanic

My boss is also a mechanic. I've seen him do hours of work for certain people and charge them 0 labor costs and only the cost of the parts - if you're unfamiliar with vehicle maintenance, a HUGE percentage of the cost to get your car worked on is labor costs. Most shops average around $70 per hour or more.

If you're a dick, he can easily take his sweet time on your car and charge you up the ass.

If he likes you, he may hook you up. At the least he won't **** you over.

Many will even just not do the work, say they can't fix it and send you somewhere else.

Trust me, don't be rude to your mechanic. :wink:

Oh no I dont be nice hehehe...

But I know some who are mechanic so for me be little cheaper and I know they can be little over price on labor costs and for the parts but not always . Mostly are they nice even if some are rude.

But wow $70 per hour :shock: what expensive your boss takes for labor costs... :roll:
