I did get cut off but finished it later. It's complete now.
Stacy's Civic (dubbed Phoebe by Tara) was dropped off yesterday. We called about making an appt in the morning and they said they could take it immediately or any time during the day because their schedule was wide open. Later we called to check because they hadn't called back and they said they hadn't got to it yet and had to keep it another day. They apologized for not letting us know.
This morning, a mechanic in a panic called Stacy. He couldn't get the car to start, key didn't work, alarm was triggered, checked battery and it was okay. It had been left in the street all night and he had just tried to move it. Stacy said she'd just pick the car up and be done with them. The mechanic said that the car will be there. Yeah, it better be. Then the manager called all apologetic. Apparently the mechanic didn't know he had to put the clutch in to start a stick. Srsly? He offered some credit and they are working on it now.
I guess they aren't used to seeing old Hondas in La Jolla.
Now we're waiting for the car to be done back at the Empress, and for Tara to take her out to lunch, probably at Plant Power.
