BG: There is a used car lot next to our parking lot that has no parking. Ever since they threatened to sue us for libel, we are not on the best terms. Their customers try and park in our lot because there's no where to park on theirs. We always politely ask them to move. /BG
This really old Buick pulls into the parking lot and goes over to the area where we usually see people park to go over to the used car lot. I always keep an eye on these cars because they are parking near our personal cars. There were two people in the car and they sat there for about 5 min without moving.
I signaled to my tech that I was going out to talk to them so he could make sure to keep an eye out in case they got upset. I walked up to the car and noticed smoke coming out of the windows...then the smell hit me and I realized they were smoking some really foul weed (the smell gives me really bad headaches so I try and avoid it).
I walked up to the window and asked if there was anything I could do to help them. The people in the car were the quintessential really skinny guy in a wife beater and a rather large woman in tiny, tiny clothing. The guy steps out and says, "Yea, so my car keeps overheating and, like, I went to AutoZone and bought the top part, but it keeps overheating so I need to talk to your mechanics to see if I need the top part or the bottom part. Can you help me out man?" He sounded like every stereotype of a pot smoker out there and I was mildly surprised he didn't say duuudeeee. I wish I had audio.
I told him my techs were busy and he could check his car in or make an appointment. He kept insisting they could just tell him what was wrong, but I kept deliberately misunderstanding him and asking when he could come in for an appointment. He eventually left in a cloud of confusion and smoke. Never did get the free help he wanted though.

At least a car a week would get the yank from there because the owner was at a party down the street.
