A big reason for it is you bring your car for service. It's going to take time. They have a bunch of cars to get through, they'll look at yours, determine what you need, sell it to you, then order parts. In the meantime the tech has moved on to another car while they wait. You're sitting in the waiting room wanting to know WHY IN THE HELL IS HE NOT WORKING ON MY CAR??!?!?! I'M SITTING HERE AND YOU'RE WASTING MY TIME!!! Then you're mad it took half a day to get the parts in because the parts supplier had to run across town to get the parts and you leave a bad review. That bad review wasn't fair and it hurts the shop.
At the end of the day, it's not worth working on your car under those circumstances. You admit your car is a POS and you're broke. That also means your car is going to need a lot of shit you can't afford so you're going to pick the bandaid to keep it going. Then a few weeks later something else breaks because you put the bandaid on it and now you're mad and blame the shop. More crap the shop has to deal with when it wasn't their fault or problem in the first place.
That's a lot of assumptions to not even answer OPs question.
How long have you run a shop?
Now that's two conversations you've avoided. Kudos for the irrelevant credentials check; if you were trying to avoid someone asking for yours, you've jumped the gun on that one too.
What didn't I answer? Why they assume? They don't assume, they just don't want you waiting. I thought I made that clear. If you're getting a tire rotation, brakes or an oil change, sure, nobody will mind if you wait. The way you're acting here, I wouldn't want you as a customer. It's pretty neat being able to fire customers in this business. It saves a lot of hassle. Have a great day.
Wtf? Lol
Ah so you've had your computer repaired before.
