Default Re: Self respect

Several years ago, my wife got new wall to wall carpet. The carpet layers cut the old carpet in 6' strips and put it out on the curb. I thought that if I laid the carpet on the garage floor with a space for oil drips in the middle, it would be a great semi permanent creeper. So far it has worked well for me. In the driveway which is brick and creepers don't roll well on brick, I use a small 3' X 6' piece of scrap rug. Like every one else, at 82 I find it hard to get down and harder to get up, whether I use a creeper, cardboard or rug. My entire purpose of this thread was to observe that so called mechanic who takes 1/2 hour to change your battery or some other simple auto chore. His work habits reflect his abilities.
