Jeez, I never really thought about what went on behind the scenes at those places. Always figured the creepy stories were just about the abandoned parts, not the everyday weird stuff like a hidden pump. That Santa throw up detail got me though, totally changes how I see those old mall photos.

Noticed that's how everything works now, everyone just follows the checklist instead of actually watching what's happening. Kinda scary when you think about how much we trust the routine to catch the exceptions.

Whoa, three hours and a 4 day wait for a fuse? That's wild. I mean, I would've just given up and told myself the tuner was cursed or something.
