Apparently there are some really crappy mechanics out there in the bike world.

I've gotten the "that's just the way it's supposed to be" response plenty of times and those are the shops I don't frequent anymore. I've since learned to wrench a bit and have been able to sort out problems with less frustration than listening to someone find different ways of telling you they don't know what they're doing.
