16) Crawl out from under car with dripping oil filter splashing oil everywhere from holes. Cleverly hide old oil filter among trash in trash can to avoid environmental penalties. Drink a beer.
17) Buddy shows up; finish case of beer with him. Decide to finish oil change tomorrow so you can go see his new garage door opener.

For me I just call the dealer and make an appointment for a Saturday. Drop the car off and have my husband follow me with his truck to pick me up. Hours later we go back and pick it up.

The other option for those of you that have husbands to do this job....
Sweetly ask hubby to change oil. Sit inside and enjoy peaceful day of Lifetime Movie's while hubby going through above steps. During commercials walk to the garage periodically for a good laugh. Back inside to watch Lifetime movie's w/o interruption.
End of day hubby too drunk to do anything so no back poking during the night. Peaceful nights sleep w/o Mr. Happy interruptions.
Option 2: Do it yourself and the job won't take so long. Women can do the job w/o getting side tracked.
Unfortunately, it costs too much to take mine in so I have to do it myself. For now.... By the way, job opening for sweet, handsome, not mechanically challenged man for lawn mowing, and car maintenance benefits include......fill in the blank.

Wish I could just ask the hubby, but I have to have service records of mine. I have a Kia it has that 10 year 100,000 mile warranty but you need service records and all that good stuff.

I buy the oil and filter and give it to my boyfriend to do. It usually sits around for months but at least it doesn't sit in the shop. LOL!

Technically, I
could
change my own oil. (My dad raised me to be as self-sufficient as possible...either that or he wished I was a boy, haven't really decided yet) But I still bring it in to the shop to get it done. But it's nice to know that for whatever reason if I couldn't bring it in to the shop, I could do it myself.
