The Mechanic

When I arrived at the workshop, the mechanic was polishing his brand new car.

I later came to know from this friendly mechanic that he has got his new car for only 3 weeks. 

As I was not in a hurry and he was free after attended to my car, we chatted for a while. He spoke about his brand new car.

This mechanic is a few years my junior and is always in his mechanic attire. 

He told me when he decided to reward himself with a new car, he first visited the car showroom near his workshop. 

The new salesman told the mechanic that the cars there were all expensive, implying that he could not afford it. 

The mechanic then asked for a catalog but the salesman said none was available. Feeling insulted the mechanic walked away. 

Two weeks later he drove his brand new car to work and when the salesman nearby saw it he almost dropped his jaw! 

Well, that was not the only car the mechanic owns. He has 3 more cars, driven by his children. His children are all working and he also owns a car accessory shop! 

Life Lesson 101: Assumption could make one loses a big sum!
