So, my 71-YO mom needs to maybe get a spot on her roof repaired.

She called the usual place.

A snotty staffer told her it would be $350 just to come out.

My mom was like “Yeah, I don’t think so. Tell the owner to call me.”

Then she tracked him down on FB.

Gave him an earful about her years of loyal business and his rude staffer.

15 mins later, the staffer called to apologize. LOL.

My mom is not to be trifled with. She’s polite as can be. Try to take advantage of her though, she’ll come atcha. You don’t want to do that.
p.s. while I’m talking about my mom’s badassery, once when she was a single mother, a mechanic tried to charge her $400 for NOT fixing her car.

Said he wouldn’t return her car unless she paid even though he hadn’t fixed it.

3/
She hung up fuming.

Called him back the next day.

Him: Are you coming to pay for your car?

Mom: No, I’m calling to let you know I’m suing you.

Him: But.

Mom: You’re being sued. Have a nice day.

She got her car that afternoon. No charge.
