I guess I’ve never really considered what kinds of weird things mechanics have to deal with all the time, but now my eyes have been opened!
Because all of these photos are pretty wild and they prove that those men and women who work on our cars and keep us on the road encounter all kinds of wild and unusual situations.
Let’s take a look at some of the really good examples!
1. That thing is ADORABLE.
Just have a seat in the lobby.
Customer: “Let me know when you are about to pull my truck in so I can get my raccoon” and he sat in the lobby with a raccoon until his truck was done.
