He nods okay and I drive it forward up and over his oil change pit.
Throughout the rest of the oil change, which took about 15 minutes or less, he keeps coming back to my drivers window and acting stuff out like it’s a game of charades. I just smile and shake my head to answer in some way. No I dont want an air filter, No I don’t want wiper blades, Each time he goes through this big dramatic acting session to convey what he needs to tell me.
When the whole thing is done and I pay by credit card and I drew him up another note that said, “Thanks and though I can’t speak, I actually can hear but I do appreciate you trying to work with me.”. He looked at it and started laughing .... and off I drove.

At least you were fortunate enough that he could read. Around here that’s not a given.
