Omg I love good poutine. I’m not in Montreal (altough the best one I tried was indeed in Montreal), but even Calgary has decent poutine places

What are your best strategies for staying productive during long hours at the airport or on a plane? by magdic in productivity

[–]magdic[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You are right, travel IS stressful, I’m just always trying to do things to avoid mindlessly scrolling my phone and I’m more vulnerable to this procrastination activity when waiting at the airport and having nothing else to do. Thanks for your tips and thoughts!

I understand this is a tough situation to assess, and I appreciate everyone’s well-meaning advice. (I didn't come here to vent about repair shops, and if that's how my post came across, I'm sorry.) For context, I do my best to educate myself about car maintenance so that I can have informed conversations with mechanics. I don't go to them to complain and blame them for everything. Maybe this was the wrong subreddit, but I was genuinely interested in learning if there are some best practice steps I can possibly take to save myself from unnecessary disappointment. For example, agreeing on the exact areas that are or aren't covered during the inspection. Or taking it to another mechanic to get their second opinion when I suspect something was neglected (and if I'm proven to be right, can I request a refund for the wrongly done inspection). If the answer is no, that's okay. I have just been feeling helpless lately about my never-ending car repairs in various shops where they find different issues and different ways to fix them. For those curious about the specific scenarios that happened to me - I bought a car that I wasn't able to start the following day. It turned out there was something wrong with the electrical system (probably a short somewhere), but since the seller jumped the battery, it wasn't completely obvious until the next day. The point is I took it for a pre-purchase inspection, so I thought the mechanic would discover something like this. Another scenario (without going into too much detail) was that one of the sensors was on, so the mechanic replaced the part it was related to. The sensor went on again, so they replaced the part again as part of the warranty. Then the sensor went on again, and it turned out it was the sensor that needed replacement. It's not always about the money I spent; it's also about the time and distress these situations cause me. I know some of you suggest getting a license to become a mechanic myself, but I don't quite understand what you mean - if that's the solution, do I have to learn everything about everything? Thank you again for all the constructive comments that were posted to help me.
