Every time I take my truck into the shop, they leave me a little present...no matter where I take it.    :?   Anyone else get this?  Usually, it's a dirty rag.  Today it was a greesy notepad with some scribbled notes on it.

What's up with that?

Well yeah...who doesn't, right? :)

I don't have anything against greese monkeys.  I like greese monkeys.  I'm a greese monkey.  I'm not complaining, just trying to find out if anyone else runs into this.

Nope.  Just an address and a time.  And there was a key stuck to the second page.

Dude...that key probably goes to somebody's house!

They might want you to let yourself in discreetly and surprise them when they get home...  :wink:

I'd just save their gifts and wrap them up for Christmas and deliver them back to that garage with a Christmas card asking them to please be a lil more careful about where they may leave their things
