Ever have someone pull a good one over on you? Lets hear it.

Mine was looking for a complete rebuild kit for my old Nissan engine. I had dumped Mega bucks into this motor and overheated it and needed a rebuild kit.

A "good" friend sent me to Dave`s neighborhood garage for a rebuild kit for this exact motor. He said it was only $200 cause it sat there for so long.

With $300 in my pocket I took off to go pick it up and get started. I asked Mike at the counter for the rebuild kit and the bastard asked me if I was sure I really wanted it.

I said yup, go get it and he reached up onto the wall and threw a shrink wrapped rubber band at me and said thats $212 inc. tax.

BASTARDS!!

We used to send co-op kids to the parts store to get spark plugs for diesel engines, worked every time.

My flux capacitor dried up. Call parts and ask for a new one.

At audioexperts they sent some work experience kids for "Din" sawz. They even brought some, and the guys just tell them it's wrong and giggle. But usually play those kinds of pranks on me.

We used to get the new guys at the gas station to check the transmision fluid on manual transmision cars.
It gets real funny when they ask the driver to help find it and even they don't know!
