sounds like a car-x muffler place deal. y'know...anytime i go into a new "repair" type shop, i tell the guy i'm dealing with right off the bat that if he does me right, he can count on my return business and that i'll spread the word about his work, but if he doesn't, not only can he can count on me to spread the "bad" word as far and wide as possible, he'll have to "deal" with a p*ssed off me. in the rural area i live in, your good name means alot and this especially applies to businesses. if i was you and the young lady, i'd start tellin' everyone i know about this experience, and hope fully the people you tell will tell their friends...and on and on and maybe someday that business will get changed over to a decent owner. here's another trick i used to use when my mom was still alive and living too far away for me to fix her car. i'd call and make the appointment at the shop she was taking her car to. i'd tell them EXACTLY what i wanted done or checked out and when they called her to tell her what she needed, she'd call me first so i could call and talk to them about it. it's a sad but true situation still, that some places are more reluctant to "screw" a man over, than a woman, like they did your friend. maybe next time she can get you or another man to set up her appointments. -mike
