Thumbs down Votech Automotive Tech FAIL

At break i heard some of the auto tech guys talking about their cars and trucks. This is what i heard.....

"Dude i just got my new throttle body spacer in from summit its sweet."
"Whoa dude how much was it?!?!"
"Only like 115 bucks man, it was cheap."
"Did you get it installed?"
"Ya bro last night! Added like 10 horsepower i think, It really helps, you should get one too!!"
"I'll order one when i get home."

I'm laughing my *** of and get up to go get a bag of chips, this is what come back to.....

"Ya my cousin got some Summit truck headers they're awesome. They're shorties and make so much more power. I even got a set of my own and they added so much power."

At this point, i walked off.......

And to think, these guys are training to be in the auto industry.....

And they are driving newer trucks.

Mechanics are getting worse and worse. Its hard to find a good one. I dropped of my dads car off the other day. They called me to come pick it up 8 hours later. The CEL was still on and when i asked them what was wrong they all said "uh I dont know". They wanted me to leave it there for another 2 days.
