Jesus H. Christ when did oil changes get so expensive?
I no longer change my own oil because I DON'T want to. I'm old(er) and I just don't want to crawl under my truck and drain the oil and change the filter.
But that's about to go back to the good old days.
The last 2 times I have gone in and had my oil changed the cost was $80. $80.00!!
I called my brother to vent. He said the last couple of times his oil was changed it cost $120.00.
I can remember in the late 1970's I would change oil for people who didn't know how and charge them $3.00.
Did you know if you pour your used oil around a rosebush the flowers will turn extremely dark, almost black?
On to a different rant.
I was just sitting here minding my own business when I get a call. Unrecognized number, but what the hell I'm not busy so I answered it.
Hello she says, this is (a garbled name) calling from (a garbled name) health group on behalf of aetna. Now that got my attention. Aetna is my health insurance. And now I'm paying attention cause what the hell is going on?
She goes on to say she is calling to schedule my home health visit. I said no I don't want to do that. She ignores me and keeps on talking about my home health visit. Again I tell her no.
She goes on and on and I tell her no at least twice more. Finally I asked her, What part of no do you not understand?
That got her attention and she finally shut up and ended the call.
That is one of my pet peeves, when I say no I mean no. Don't keep asking me.
Thank you for listening.
You now have chartable evidence how fast the value of the dollar is declining.
ReplyDeleteOn the calls, speak in some other language than english, they hang right up. French, Spanish, German, Hebrew.
I will not allow "Health Care Officals" to enter and " Inspect" my home either. What will these spies report back to agencies? Same response that I get back when I say no, no, No, No!!!!
ReplyDeleteWhat you are paying is not any where near what we in the Midwest pay. I just had an oil change 3 weeks ago. $49.00 so I picked up my car and went 1 block away to fill it up. Paid $2.59 for gas. Was on empty and cost about $42 dollars. Eggs are down to $2.59.
ReplyDelete$200 for my oil change. Yes, Cummins diesel so 3 gallons. Still...I'm crawling under the truck from now on.
