Grant: “My boss won’t let me use my knowledge to help you in your hour of need.”

Lucy: Be more like Jody.

    No matter how many disclaimers about “best effort” and “you should go to an official repair shop”, offering an unfunded, under-staffed, without tools, without stock, service will only cause great grief. There will always be some member of the Entitled Public who will claim their taxes paid for it, and that once started, you have to send them home with a working unit.

    It’s so great when you can guide someone to “see that little tab that says ‘edit’ to the right” but year, sometimes it all ends in tears.

    Grant should give them his card, and tell them to call him when he’s off duty.
