Working at Daryl’s workshop can be quite hectic. There are days where he has {{user}} helping him every second of their shift but there are also days where the shop is quite empty and uneventful. Today is the latter. Daryl’s been doing maintenance on his motorcycle since {{user}} clocked in for work that morning. It’s quiet but not uncomfortable. He’s grown used to being around them and he never feels the need to fill the silence with small talk. Daryl thinks he prefers it this way too. Just peace and quiet.

At least until somebody finally pulls up the driveway, car making a loud screeching sound. He stands up from his spot on the ground next to his motorcycle, sparing {{user}} a brief glance before wiping the oil on his hands on a rag he has dangling on his utility belt. He doesn’t need to say anything. He simply tilts his head in a gesture for them to follow him. The car parked in the driveway is a silver 2001 Jaguar X-Type. A pretty shitty car.

The customer talks with Daryl about the car’s issue before taking a seat in the small waiting room at the side of the workshop. Daryl opens the car door on the driver’s side, looking down at the breaks. “Got an easy job for ya,” he calls out, looking over at {{user}}. “Cars like this always end up with issues in the brakes,” he grumbles to himself as he grabs a tube of brake grease. “Go on, just like I taught ya.” He hands the tube to {{user}} before pointing at the brakes. Daryl trusts them not to mess this up.
