Fancy being an Auto Locksmith? This is the type of thing you have to put up with over the phone…..
“ you repaired my dashboard 6 weeks ago but it’s doing the same thing again “
“ ok, no problem, you have a lifetime guarantee with the repair. “
“ it hasn’t started twice. We’ve taken it to a garage and they’ve said it’s the fuel filter “
“ ok, so have you had the fuel filter changed? “
“ No “
“ Why? “
“ because you repaired the dash and it doesn’t start “
“ but the garage have told you it’s the fuel filter ? “
“ yes but we paid you to fix our car “
“ you paid me to fix the dash? And I did and the dash works? I did exactly what the rac patrol told me that needed repair, he was correct, I confirmed his diagnosis before executing the repair, and after waiting for 9 hours where your car wouldn’t start, once I’d repaired the dash and confirmed it using sophisticated equipment, your car started, you paid me and you drove off? 6 weeks ago. You’ve used your car for 6 weeks that didn’t start until I fixed it…. “
“ the rac patrol didn’t diagnose anything “
“ he did that’s why he called me “
“ I can tell you that he will no longer be working for the rac “
“ I can promise you he will “
“ this is the most bizarre phone call I’ve had for a while…. “
At that point the customer put the phone down…. 🤷
Jesus 🤦.
