Default Was I an a-hole?

Took the Gladiator in to the stealership for a free oil change today. The service reception area is 3 cubicles with the service advisers sitting in each of them. As you walk in to the area, there are tables in front of the cubicle entrances, intended to be a socialist distance buffer. And of course, everyone has to wear face diapers.

I walk in and one of the service advisers asked if I had an appointment, which I did. She asked for my name, so I told her, and spelled it out for her. She asked again, and I spelled it out for her again. She couldn't find me in the computer because she couldn't hear me.

I was wearing a face diaper, as was she, and she was at least 10 feet away. Since I didn't feel like shouting while wearing a face diaper, and dealing with this bullshit, I simply left.

I'll be so glad when this shit is over.

I would have found a manager and reamed him a new one for making it nearly impossible to do business there. Then I would insist on having them pick my vehicle up from home and deliver it when completed since they cannot find some happy medium concerning personal contact in house. And I would STILL not be an asshole for doing that!

I would have punched her in the face. Then would have taken her to the men's bathroom without a mask and raped her. Gone back without a mask and yelled i'am snide and i have an appointment.

Yes, somewhat of an asshole. The service writers don't make the rules of the place. Hell, if your area is like mine, those rules probably don't even come from the dealership itself. They're trying to do the best they can with what they're forced to do.

Personally, I'd make another appointment, go back, get it done, and if they remember you leaving, tell them you had a sudden emergency you had to leave to take care of. Alternatively, buy the shit and do it yourself or go to a quick change place and pay for it.

So, if I'm reading this correctly, Snide was an asshole. I mean, he still is, but he was, too.

That's how you got "somewhat" vs. "total."

I mean, we could score this like Flex's dinner plates, I guess.

You wasted your time, you could have walked over to her and give her the moronic treatment, get your oil done, and teached the little bitch a lesson
