I can breathe...

I was told on Saturday by a tow truck driver that my mechanic had gone out of business. Luckily Jonathan decided to stop by and see if there was anything there. Family emergency. They will be back on Wednesday. I really didn't want to have to hunt down a new mechanic. I trust these guys and they don't try to fuck me over when I go to them. Now I hope that they can get me set back up in my lifetime!

This is a bad week for this to happen. I really didn't want to have this lovely added stress when I am going to start a new job. I just didn't need this.

Maximum Auto on San Mateo and Phoenix. When I was having my leaky fuel injector issue, they gave me several options to deal with it and cut the cost of labor because it came out to so much. Plus they have a cute dog (I know that shouldn't matter), but they also didn't try to take advantage of me, which made me feel pretty darn good.
I felt like all of the other places I called were treating me stupid because I was a woman. They argued with me that the injectors couldn't be leaking. The fact that I could smell it, other people could see it hitting the ground when I was driving, and if you opened the hood there was gas everywhere was not apparently a dead give-away. Maximum at least believed me (more-so when I dropped the car off), but they understood that I was not a complete idiot. I appreciated that.

Sorry, that got long...
