I've had nothing but trouble* when using the "quick lube"-type places. Most of the employees seem to be HS/college kids that are just doing time to get some spending money. Do as the others have suggested and take it to some place that hires ppl that give a crap.
You can usually save a few bucks by bringing in your own oil/filter but it's not going to be that much - unless they have outrageous prices at the shop. I chalk up the few extra bucks to goodwill.
* Eg, not fully refilling the Ford Top-loading Manual Transmission in my '67 Mustang. Trans was trashed by the time I got home. Luckily, top-loaders are pretty easy to rebuild and the parts are very reasonable. But I was still without my Mustang for a few weeks while I ordered parts and did the rebuild.
