Chairman's Award: Chairman's Award - Issue reason: Your outstanding contributions to this community have not gone unnoticed. IN my view you are a worthy recipient of the (rarely used) Chairman's Award. 
Default Re: Some mechanics must think people are stupid!

The workshop here used to use a brake/clutch parts supplier who was really close, therefore handy. As time went on they began to outsource sleeving and rebuilds, and nearly every set of rotors or drums picked up for machining was “Sorry, past the wear limit”.

Once the shop relocated, another supplier was closer, and a place who weren’t so silly about machining brake parts was now 100m away. So the greedy specialists lost all the business.
