seen a few scary things over the yrs working as a mechanic . first yr apprentice driving a car into the wheel alignment pit . god knows how he missed the drive on runners . took a tow truck to lift it out .and some good will to the owner who actually was quite calm over the whole thing . saw a car fall off a 2 post hoist as the arms weren't positioned correctly car fell from nearly full height just missing the bloke under it at the time .
or you get the customer who puts there secret mark on a oil filter or air filter just so he can check if its been changed lol when I spot these marks I mark the new ones the same lol and draw a smiley face with a paint pen lol .
ive worked with some shocking mechanics over the yrs but on the other hand ive dealt with some nut case customers as well. more stories for later on lol
