Wild ride.
Two takeaways, why did you pay the 20$ to the guys fixing the car? It's not your car and she's not your gf.
Second, I agree with you being a jerk sucks.
Honestly, I felt like an asshole not helping, and she didn’t offer them anything for their help. Looking back maybe that was a sign. But yeah I thought that these 2 guys that got her car running deserved at least a 12 pack of beer each (remember we are talking mid 90s prices). So, I gave them a 20. Plus if I’m being 100% honest. I was probably trying to look cool. It did not impress. Heh
