Trick or Treat - 01-12-2010, 05:19 PM

Halloween (October 31st) I am called to detail a car that is privatly being sold. I arrive at the customer's house and this woman comes out to greet me. Her hair is pitch black (looked like a wig), the dress she was wearing looked like it was from the 1930's era, and her eye makeup was 3 different colors and painted on with a very pointy design as if she just walked of a "Star Trek" movie. I almost commented on her appearance by asking where the Halloween Party was and I'm glad I didn't.

She asked me to come back and do another vehicle for her along with a headlight restoration. A few weeks later I returned to this woman's home to detail her other car as she requested and when she came out of the house, you guessed it, she was dressed the same way. Looking back I thought how awful it would have been if I had commented on her attire by saying something like, "nice witch Salem get up. When's the party?" whew... that was a close one!

I should also add that it was good that you didn't say anything but given the day and all it wouldn't have been out of line
