Brief story:

 

The sun was shining over the LV-LS Highway as I stood at the Cuban Cars garage with my fellow CC members and the eager CC wannabes, ready for another day of work. The atmosphere was lively as we geared up to serve customers and train the newcomers on the art of being a mechanic.

It wasn’t long before the first customer rolled in—a guy in a car complaining about strange noises and leaks from his exhaust. I greeted him, took a quick look under the hood, and checked the exhaust system. After a few minutes, I found the problem—it was just a loose exhaust pipe causing the noise and leak. Simple fix.

I explained the issue to the customer and quoted him a price. He agreed, and I got to work. One of the CC wannabe mechanics, eager to learn, stepped in to assist me. I guided him through the process as we tightened the exhaust system back into place, eliminating the issue. While we were at it, we decided to do a fresh oil change for the customer. The wannabe mechanic handled it well, following my instructions carefully. You could see the excitement in his eyes—he was starting to enjoy the job, and I could tell he had potential.

Once the work was done, I took the customer to the office to finalize the invoice. To my surprise, he left an extra tip as appreciation for the good service. A solid start to the day.

But then, things took a turn.

A biker stormed into the garage, clearly upset. His motorcycle was smoking badly, and he demanded a repair. At first, I was ready to help, but as I stepped closer, I noticed something alarming—there were bullet holes on the bike. That immediately raised a red flag.

I stopped right there and told him, “Look, I can’t touch this. We’re gonna need a police clearance certificate before we can do any work on it.” The guy was furious. He tried to persuade me, getting closer and speaking in a hushed tone. Then he tried bribing me, slipping some cash toward me in the corner.

I wasn’t having it. I firmly refused, keeping my stance clear—no paperwork, no service. The biker, now even angrier, grabbed his money and stormed out. But he wasn’t done yet. Minutes later, he came back, yelling and causing a scene in the garage. The CC members and I stood by, monitoring the situation, making sure it didn’t escalate. After a bit more shouting, he finally left, still fuming.

After that strange encounter, we got back to work. The CC members and I kept an eye on how the mechanics were doing, making sure everything ran smoothly. The wannabes were learning, the garage was busy, and business continued as usual.

At the end of the day, we reflected on what happened. It was another lesson—not every customer would be easy to deal with, and in this line of work, integrity mattered. No shortcuts, no shady deals, just honest work.

And with that, we locked up the garage, ready for whatever came next.

Duration: 30 minutes

Another day at the shop in San Fierro, Doherty, just chilling when a customer rolled in with a Stratum. He was on the fence about buying it and wanted a general check-up before making a decision. Good thing he came to the right place.

Phantom took the lead on the inspection while I leaned back, watching him work. First, he popped open the hood, checking the engine—9 horses and a turbo, no oil leaks, looking solid. He then slid into the driver’s seat, turned the key, and gave it some revs to test how it responded. Everything sounded smooth, so he moved on to check the water level. No issues there either.

Next up was the filter. He removed it carefully, but some oil started leaking. Luckily, he had a bowl ready, so things didn’t get messy. He gave the filter a good cleaning and placed it back in.

Once he was done, Phantom walked over and filled me in on the details. Before I could even respond, the car’s owner approached him with an attitude, throwing unnecessary remarks. Phantom wasn’t having it and quickly shut it down, redirecting him to me for the payment. The guy didn't have much choice but to comply.

After settling up, he hopped back into the Stratum and drove off. Another job done, another car checked, and another customer handled. Just another day in the life at Cuban Cars.
