Like for example, how someone thinks because you work in IT you can fix their TV, or how if you're into music you must be able to play any random instrument.

I just like hearing pros rant about about their very niche problems.

Yes, women CAN work on cars, and be good at it.

No, not every mechanic is trying to screw you over.

Yes, all the work/the price I quoted IS accurate. There are other parts that interact with the part you broke. Having a race car isn’t cheap.

No, we can’t just put a new valve in the head, since you bent the old one, and fucked up the seat, guide, etc in the process.

Yes, I know A LOT about Mazda/Nissan, specifically, but I’m not an encyclopedia. Sometimes I do have to look shit up, as much as it annoys you.

No, I don’t know what’s wrong with your car from a 3 word description by you. I’m not psychic.

Yes, we have a scan too, but, no, it doesn’t tell you exactly what’s wrong. It points you in the right direction, sure, SOMETIMES.

No, I’m not being lazy, your car isn’t doing whatever intermittent issue you were complaining about.
