ugh. Poor you. Nice shot that shows the starkness of the waiting room.

At least the water looks cheery. :) At our oil change place it plays ESPN all the time, which makes no sense to me because it's mostly women customers and all the guys are supposed to be working . . .

I agree, those waiting rooms have to be the most boring place on earth!

sorry but i'v missed some of your story .. is it you or your car getting the recall check ??!!. this is a great shot for capturing a very univeral image .. this looks very like the place i used to take my car to called mcgraths at liverpool, which is just southwest of sydney .. i say 'used to' coz i stopped taking it there when i realised they were really ripping me of, saying things needed to be done when they didnt etc etc .. i actually voided the 3 year warranty by not taking it back which caused me a bit'v worry because it wasnt a new car .. fortunately it hasnt given me any more problems than a 10 year old car usually would .. after saying all that i realise that this photograph of yours might actually be a hospital !!!! ... lol .. well not lol about being a hospital, but that i might'v got it totally wrong ..

What a great idea to take your camera with you to get an oil change. I need to get one later this week and I think I will do the same thing.e
