Funny Thing Happened at the Harley Shop
So, I'm at the Harley shop yesterday, waiting for my brake switches to be replaced. I'm sitting on the couch in the lounge area, near the bathrooms. This old guy walks into the men's bathroom. He is in there a few minutes, then I hear him yell for someone to come in there. I thought he might have fallen or had a medical issue, and no one else around seems to hear him, so I rush in there. He's sitting on the toilet, in the stall with the door shut, and he says "there's no toilet paper in here!", then he chuckles. Sooooo, since I had nothing else to do but wait on my bike, I went out to alert someone who works there. The salespeople who met me as I came out started laughing and couldn't stop. It was hysterical.
So, this poses a question...what would you do in that old man's situation?

IMO, he should have noticed there was no wipe before he unloaded.
But if he had told me there was no wipe and it was an emergency, I would have just went out and grabbed one of the Project Rushmore brochures at the dealer entrance.
Speaking of incidents at the dealer, I was in to my local dealer to talk to a friend who works there and this guy was blowing a gasket in the service area. He had some part installed and he freaked when they handed him the bill. Apparently, someone misquoted how many hours of labor it would take to install a $100 part. It was some small LED light fixture they mounted onto his tour-park. Apparently they had quoted him one hour of labor and they billed him for three. The guy was about to the point of blows with the service tech. He was really going off on the service tech. He asked to see the manager and got all in his face-- "This is Bullsh**t !! Peanut quoted me ONE HOUR !!!" I guess Peanut is one of the techs. The manager was just saying that they took three hours so that was what he has to pay. His bill was something like $385, as the hourly rate is $95.

I'd like to finger wipe and leave them a present. But I'd probably yell like he did. BUT the first thing you do before you go into any restroom...CHECK FOR THE BUTT WIPE FIRST!!! It's like checking the door, to make sure that you're going into the right restroom.

There was a skit on Impractical Jokers that used this situation. But, in a restaurant, and he popped the door open into the view of all those dining near...

get it in writing(quote). it is never over until the paperwork is done. being as it was a moco dealer, you would think he would keep the stalls full of non-skid(instead of a quality tissue that would actually remove the crap) so he could slip it into you without any resistance. nothing worse than wiping your butt several times and still having a dirty butt.
