Today I was out fixing the brakes on my Ford, unfortunately I lack tools to complete doing so
This guy comes up to me asks if I need help , I tell him I need a certain tool to take off the calipers which I was told by the auto part store I was buying the right set of tools.
Well they were right but wrong , the tools I bought were to Short.
Anyways dude comes over with his set of tools thinking he knew what he was doing started trying to take off the wrong parts.
He was trying to remove the bolts that hold the rotor on , which comes off only when you change the rotors .
Granted I did buy new rotors but brought them back to buy tools .
Anyways I told him multiple times he was trying to remove the wrong part .
Me being a female in this **** town men assume woman don't and can't know more than they do.
I had to ask my bf to come out to explain to him that his help wasn't needed just a 1/2 inch Allen wrench.
It took multiple attempts to get dude to listen , and he wasn't listening to me.
