They Ghosted my Truck

I never seen a body shop detail anyone's car without asking first, is it just like a shop courtesy or something? Did they charge you?
Maybe his truck ghosted the entire shop ! They had no choice but to clean it...so they could work on it ! A reverse ghost.
This reminds me of a Seinfeld episode.

No, the detailer left a little card with mints. The place is really nice with an open bar and stuff if you have to wait for a repair. Just little luxuries to entice folks to use them over greasy places that have you wait in a barn-like setting. They have done work on my wife’s car, but thos was the forst time I needed repairs done. I just had no idea that they would do anything inside the cab.
Hahaha, I’m 6’5 and I drive a Honda Fit, looks and feels like I’m driving a go-cart. I like it but I get a lot of shit for it, especially in Texas. Oh and a chick magnet it ain’t but I go for the more intelligent and humble type (not necessarily ugly, I know that’s what you’re thinking!).
I got about a pound of loose tobacco in my car too, I’d be happy if someone vacuumed that shit up but I get you, I wouldn’t want someone trying to scent up my car, that’s off limits, you should fine them.
Damn that's a nice shop, they don't do that for me up this way. I'll take free detail but I'd be annoyed if they did that to me without asking first though. Privacy and all that.
I bet they recycle that tobacco they vacuumed up. Maybe Jared it up as Haunted Bookshop. No, I bet it tasted better.
Yeah that sucks, man. The fact that some people enjoy the smell of chemical-laden cleaners like lysol, certain dish soaps, and laundry detergents baffles me. My music studio upstairs smells like pipe tobacco and it’s such a welcoming, sweet smell. I too would be furious if it smelled like an airport urinal cake.
Oh dear god, my car is at the body shop. I need to call them tomorrow and let them know not to take it upon themselves to clean the interior.
Poor kids thought they were doing a favor, like a computer expert cleaning the viruses off your computer when you still wanted the scandalous popups.
Update… I got a call about an hour ago while I was at the gym. The owner asked me if I was pleased with the service. I told him that the body work and paint was fantastic as expected, worth the wait and price. But, I explained my issue with the chemical smell and about being a pipe smoker. He explained that he was a cigar guy, and he totally understood. He apologized. He was trying out a local detailer to use as part of his service and would relay that the smell was an issue. He also told me to pick out a box of my favorite cigars at the local cigar shop and To put it on his tab.
I explained that, that was too much, but I appreciated the offer. He insisted, so… I guess I’ll drop by and pick up some GTOs tomorrow. A very classy place. I feel like the gesture makes up for the inconvenience. I will totally recommend them to locals.

Well ! Put that in your pipe and smoke it ! You should probably buy a lotto ticket too with that kind of luck !
they advertised it as a cleaning product for those not so fresh times. And it's still used that way (but that's shit is too depressing to get into, it fits under the category of "So what's so bad about everyone going extinct?"From their website...
Lysol was originally created in 1899 by Gustav Raupenstrauch to help stop the spread of the cholera epidemic in Germany. By the 1918 Spanish flu pandemic, Lysol was marketed as a way of cleaning surfaces and combating the spread of the virus.
Smithsonian says that it was fraudulently advertised as a form of birth control for one series of ads, but not by Lysol, but by some unscrupulous media outlets. It would actually cause death if used for this.
I am going to re-name you derailedbob.
the thing with that technique is it did work. When compared to doing nothing. Thankfully they came up with more effective ways to deal with drowning people.
