Changing Oil (An E-mail) Hilarious!
Ok, I got this in an e-mial from a friend and thought it was the most accurate and hilarious thing I have ever read and just thought i'd share it with all of you.
Oil change instructions for women:
1) Pull up to Jiffy Lube when the mileage reaches 3000 miles since last oil change.
2) Drink a cup of coffee and/or soda.
3) 15 minutes later, write a check and leave with a properly maintained vehicle.
Money spent:
Oil change: $31.00
Coffee/soda: $1.00
Total = $32.00
Oil change instructions for men:
1) Wait until Saturday, drive to auto parts store and buy a case of oil, filter, kitty litter, hand cleaner and a scented tree, Write a check for $50.00.
2) Stop by 7-11 and buy a case of beer, write a check for $20.00, drive home.
3) Open a beer and drink it.
4) Jack car up. Spend 30 minutes swearing while looking for lost jack stands.
5) Find jack stands under kid's pedal car.
6) In frustration, open another beer and drink it.
7) Place drain pan under engine.
8) Look for 9/16ths box end wrench.
9) Give up and use crescent wrench.
10) Unscrew drain plug.

14) Spend 30 minutes looking for oil filter wrench.
15) Give up. Crawl under car and hammer a screwdriver through oil filter and twist off.
16) Crawl out from under car with dripping oil filter splashing oil everywhere from holes. Cleverly hide old oil filter in trash to avoid environmental penalties. Drink beer.
17) Buddy shows up; finish case of beer with him. Decide to finish oil change tomorrow so you can see his new garage door opener work.
18) Sunday: skip church because " I gotta finish the oil change." Drag pan full of old oil out from underneath car. Cleverly dump oil in hole in backyard instead of taking it to recycle place.
