Who ever they are, if I was you, set up a ‘fake’ email, use another

The sack.You could contact “Andy Savva” “the garage inspector” try not to look at any
Photos or videos of him, as you will instantly think like me, he is nothing more than a caveman, looks, walks & talks like one, but if when your on holiday next
See if you can arrange for him to contact your branch ceo, see if can post some stuff out, see if ever mentioned after your holiday. Of course never let him anywhere near your workplace with nothing more than a tin of paint, not unless you want tyres stacked under stairs and 4000 litres of plastic oil vessels
With a sandblaster on top.As for diagnostics of nasty rotten cars I bet the full sake of argument 15 hours
At £140+VAT/hour would have been placed on desk for customer to pay.See if you can spend a few days doing services!
Perhaps next nasty job if you can tell customer three hours then fixed or not bail and 3 hours to pay. Feedback your fault/fix as yourself to technical support.
If the customer returns with sweets etc, bet your bottom dollar office staff would have pigged them.
