A few stories people tell about this place

1. One morning, a delivery driver pulled up to Mass Ave Sunoco and asked the mechanic, 'Do you guys ever see ghosts around here?' The mechanic looked puzzled but replied, 'Not that I know of.' Since then, customers claim to hear strange noises late at night. Finally, one evening, an old lady driving by heard the noise and called the mechanic, asking if he needed help. He told her it was just some mischievous neighborhood kids playing pranks. Turned out, it was indeed those kids, who had hidden in the garage and were imitating car alarms for fun—until they got caught red-handed by the surprised mechanic!

2. A curious old man parked his bike outside Mass Ave Sunoco one afternoon. As he walked in, he noticed that every tool on the wall seemed to be whispering his name. The old man grinned and whispered back, ‘I guess you’ve been waiting for me a long time.’ Suddenly, the tools fell silent, and an embarrassed mechanic poked his head out from behind the counter, muttering, “Hey, you’re not supposed to talk to them!” The regulars burst into laughter as the old fellow sheepishly rode off on his bike, leaving behind a puzzled but amused delivery driver.

3. A regular customer walked into Mass Ave Sunoco one day and announced: ‘I’m leaving my car here for an oil change, but I’ll be back in five minutes.’ The mechanic nodded, puzzled, as he watched the man stride confidently out the door. Five minutes passed, then ten, and soon half an hour had ticked away. Just as the mechanic was about to call out, a delivery driver rushed in, panting heavily. 'Hey,’ he said, ‘did you see a guy come in here? He left his car for an oil change!' The mechanic shook his head, smiling. 'Nope, didn’t see anyone.'

4. Late one night, a delivery driver pulled up to Mass Ave Sunoco. The air was suddenly filled with an eerie, sweet scent—a whiff of fresh-baked cookies wafting from inside the garage. The mechanic emerged from the workshop, holding a plate of warm chocolate chip cookies. ‘Freshly baked,’ he grinned. The delivery driver accepted one with a smile and remarked, ‘You guys work late hours here.’ The mechanic shrugged, ‘We close when the last cookie goes.’
