    otherwise Its being dealt with internally already, My original question was to find out why this sort of behavior is so popular in the industry otherwise where i dont have problems with other types of mechanics
    Name names ... or farting into the has more effect (and validity. that issue can be easily treated)

    Posting on KB ... any (claimed) issues or problems with a (unnamed) commercial motorcycle service industry ... and just your word it actually happened ... ???

    There are TWO sides to the story you tell. Name the business('s) concerned ... and let's hear THEIR side. That WOULD be fair ... would it not .. ??

    If roles were reversed .. YOU would demand the same ... (unless you really ARE a wimp)

    hmmm, nope., No one needs to defend themselves if no one is named, If I went out my way and named them then yes that does give them opportunity to tell their side, Im not going to drag a whole company into something just because of one bad egg, and calling me out for being a wimp doesn't force your hand any further, I just handle things different.

    and no, I wouldnt demand the same, if my name wasnt mentioned because No one is blaming me publicly.

    There is still suspicion ... that can do more harm than naming ...

    Your name suggests you're a Computer Geek. Even geeks have a few clues ... but little sense of reality.

    Explains a lot really.

    hmmm ok, go try explain that first line with out secular reasoning, Id like to see your sense in that

    how is anyone going to be hurt if no one knows who did it? if you have a favorite service center and some one said they had a bad experience with a service center, that wouldnt defer you going back to your favorite one as you wouldnt know any better, unless you are hella paranoid, are you?

    Ahh but he is correct, I am a computer geek, Ex Auto sparkie too!

    but really, My moral, I dont really care that you think I should name and shame.

    YOU are hurt (apparently) ... not that I really care.

    How are problems and issues be sorted ... if you don't contact the relevant (accused) business. If management find their employee's were NOT fulfilling company policies on customer service requirements .. they usually become extremely helpful to the aggrieved client.

    Many on here are familiar with management and staff at most of the service providers in your area. (and regard them as friends) Those friends are now under suspicion.

    Naming is one thing ... there can be no shame if guilt isn't proven or even admitted. Accusations should be backed by proof. Peeing into the wind has the same effect ... it comes right back.

    That's comedy gold. The only person that would give a toss is the business owner and the client.

    Suspicion of what? Giving crap service?

    you seamed to have missed the fact that i am talking with the company, and that its being dealt with internally, hence the reason naming and shaming is not also necessary. Also im friends with the owner and sale team, its the workshop foreman i have a problem with.

    You read it, so who's the retard?


    Sounds like the workshop supervisor has shortman syndrome. Not uncommon at all, thinks everybody is out to fuck him and has an unsatisfied wife. I have delt with people like that before, just pay the bill and go to the management.
    Hopefully talking with the owner will help.
