There's a bike shop down the street from me that I used to give a little money to for inspections and stuff. They acted like ****** to me once and I cut them some slack because people can have a bad day.
Then I stopped there once because my tire was completely flat and I needed some air real quick just to get home.
One of the mechanics came out and asked me if i had an appointment. I explained to him what was up... and let him know that I just needed some air to get 1/2 mile up the street to my house. He looked at the tire and said "It doesn't matter.... you need an appointment" and he went inside.

I got the air, but I've already steered 2 people away from their shop who were gonna use them. That's a bullchit way to treat anyone.
