Sometimes when things get frustrating, I feel like going, "screw it, I'm just gonna get me some Obama money." But, yeah, I gotta work. I couldn't do that.
Oh yeah, even the reasonable ones are expensive, and I've had a tough year or so in the repair department. But, they work hard and while it's tough when it comes outta my pocket, they need to make a good living like anyone else.
Well, you quoted the story... The starter was almost 5 hundy, a difficult R&R, and the mechanic came to his house to do it. I could have lived with that bill.
