When I left my car for an oil change, my radio

 
was on Sirius Ch 118, which is MSNBC.

Two hours later, I got back into my car and someone had changed the channel to Fux News on Sirius.

Maybe I should get my car checked out by another mechanic.

Who leaves their car anymore?  I've been going to Valvoline for a few years, where you sit in the car and press whatever buttons they want pressed...  and you're out in about 15-minutes.  Done.  Fluids, filters, and air.

I still do.  The Ford dealer is about 2 miles away from me, and is open until midnight.  I drop off the car after work, they provide me with a Lyft ride home then my wife takes my to the dealer after dinner to pick up the car.  It's very convenient and I don't have to deal with the morning drop off crowd. 

And the only reason I have the dealer change my oil is because my truck takes 8 quarts and I use synthetic.  They have an oil program where I can buy 8 synthetic oil changes including filter, 20 point inspection and tire rotation for $360.00 which comes out to $45.00 a change.  It would cost me $40.00 to buy the oil and filter myself then deal with the messy job of changing it.

And my radio has never been dicked with while at the dealer....

30. You bet I would fire a surgeon who's a Trumpet.

You think I want a psycho standing over me with a knife? Somebody who has demonstrated he has no moral values whatsoever?

I fired a dentist once for that exact reason.[/quote]

And get this:

66. The only doctors or dentists I have fired for their politics are the ones who pushed it

I fired one dentist since he not only has Faux Noise on the TV in the waiting room, the entire time he was checking my mouth and I was unable to respond, he spouted right wing garbage. When his receptionist tried to set up another appointment, I told her I would not be back since I didn't want to listen to propaganda while I was in the office.

 :lmao:   :lmao:  But it's OK when PCIntern does it, right?

53. !00% yes, he was sending a message that your kind isn't wanted there.

I'm sure there is a good mechanic who is also Democratic and hopefully not far away.

 :lmao:  I go to Valvoline, too, and I don't ask them how they all voted.  They work as a team to get me out fast.  What lunatics our dear DUmmies are.  How would that conversation go, exactly, when calling about inquiring after a new mechanic?   :rotf:

75. I'm not at all surprised that someone who aspires to change oil for a living listens to Fox News

The people I run across with the lowest IQs tend to be the exact audience Right Wing talk radio is targeting.

You should have asked the person who changed your oil if he purchased any of those penis enlargement pills they advertise on those Right Wing channels.

85. Right,anyone who performs manual labor deserves to be looked down on

Do you feel the same way about waitstaff, custodians, and housekeepers too?

Their elitism always bites them in the ass, time and again, but they just can't help themselves.
