1. One morning, a delivery driver pulled up to Bay Area Point S Tire & Auto Service and asked the mechanic, ‘Why does your sign keep flashing “TIRED”?’ The mechanic grinned sheepishly, tapping his fingers on the counter. 'Well,' he said, 'I’ve been working here for years, and every time I get tired, I just reach over and press the button.' A nearby customer chimed in, nodding knowingly, 'Yep, that’s why it says "TIRED"—because they’re always fixing tires AND themselves!'

As he stepped out of his truck, a small dog ran right past him, yapping excitedly and sniffing something on the ground near the entrance. The mechanic looked down and saw an old tire valve stem covered in mud. ‘Oh, you little rascal,’ he laughed, picking up the dog. The delivery driver shook his head, smiling. “Guess that’s why they call it Bay Area,” he said, as the neighbor walked over, scratching the dog behind its ears. “He always finds the dirtiest places to explore.”
3. One day, an old man walked into Bay Area Point S Tire & Auto Service and asked for the mechanic. ‘Hey,’ he said, tapping on the counter, ‘how come every time I drive away from here, my tires make that funny sound?’ The mechanic shrugged, grinning. 'Ah, that's because your tires are talking to you!' The old man laughed heartily, shaking his head.
