Break In Service for an Anal Retentive Freak

So I got my 1,200 done today. I'd scheduled it a week before, discussed all of my craziness with the shop foreman. He assigned my car to their (so he said) top tech. I brought my own oil (M1 0W-40 Euro Formula). I drew a line around quart number 9 at about a third down and instructed them to stop pouring there. I told them I'd finish a cup at a time topping off-given what the car told me over the next few days. Car was done in 50 minutes, with 2 tenths more on the ODO. (No washy, No drivey) I like it when people follow directions... I'm taking donuts to the tech tomorrow to thank him. Good guy.

Now I can change the oil and filter for awhile, and not stress over having someone else not do it with my freakish care. My OCD personality will inevitably shave years off of my life expectancy...
