Distrust the Midas Touch

May 21, 2009

If you can’t spell it, I don’t think I’ll trust you to guarantee it.  The only guarantee you provide is an ego-driven snarky attitude that if something is wrong with my car; it’s probably due to my inability to understand mechanics.  I see your point.  I wouldn’t expect you to understand Goodnight Moon, or any other children’s book.

Hopefully, their mechanic skills surpass their English skills, or at least the level of their egos.  If all Midas mechanics s***gold like they seem to think they can, we’d having flying cars by now.

You, Midas, are a giant chain of auto repair shops.  To your employees, it’s just a job.  My car is simply the next one in line.  I’d rather hire a word-of-mouth mechanic at double your fees.  Why?  Because for them it’s their business.  Unlike you, it’s another location.  They rely on honesty and good service, not a large corporation with an advertising budget.

Here’s a suggestion, take that $75 diagnostic I paid, which found nothing wrong, and buy yourself “Remedial English for Dummies.”

I hope you get crabs.

    It’s like when my husband “plomises” me things, so he doesn’t have to live up to a promise.

    They “gaurantee” it so they don’t have to live up to a guarantee.

    Can I trust them if I just need a toon-up?

    I hear they are great with breaks.

    I would trust a mechanic that can’t spell before I would trust an English teacher to work on my car.

    I’m not letting them get anywhere near my injun.

    Кстати, если закончаться фото Одри, то можешь в фотошопе старые фото накладывать на новый фон, так и разнообразие будет и ты работать продолжишь
