Just got my car serviced at the mechanics

I told him don't bother changing the oil cause i do that myself like a real man

When i went to pick my car up i asked for an itemised account before paying and realised he had charged me for the oil change, i was like wtf????

He explains that is a basic "service package" and he couldn't charge me less because i didn't want him changing my oil

Started getting aggressive with him saying I wasn't paying until he re itemised the account but basically had to pay the full amount to get my car back like a cuck

Fckn raging rn

This is why for stuff like that I make sure we’re in agreement beforehand exactly how much the charge will be in no uncertain terms. A crystal clear amount in dollars and pennies

No way I’d leave my car at a shop and just be like “fix it and charge me whatever it costs”

Changing manual transmission oil is more satisfying
