Or my ex. - damn she tears people a new asshole if they screw up like that. One time Jiffy Lube didn't tighten the drainplug enough (I was in France at the time), and she got stranded with an empty oilpan on the way to a Barney concert with the kids and their friends (no joke). Anyway she raised hell and we ended up with a big check for compensation.
That sounds like the reason Pete's getting free gas and a "we're sooo sorry" letter. 'Cause he can probably stick it to 'em for a lot more if he wants to.

But as I've learned, it's probably best just to take the path of least resistance and move on with life. Going after someone if you're not really hurt by their actions is probably more trouble than it's worth. Hell, going after someone that *has* F'd you over is almost more trouble than it's worth 'cause the legal system in this country is out of control complicated. Justice is expensive.
