Me: *on the phone with my mechanic* “Do you do body work?”
Mechanic: “I’m afraid not.”
Me: “Could you recommend someone?”
Mechanic: “Recommended?”
Me: “Yes.”
Mechanic: “Okay.” *long pause*
Me: “So, do you know anyone?”
Mechanic: “Recommended?”
Me: “Yes.”
Mechanic: “They’re out on Highway 41.”
Me: “Who?”
Mechanic: “Recommended?”
(We go back and forth until he finally spells it for me: Wreck-a-mended.)
