My $260 exhaust system is cancelled

[gator2511]

I don't understand how some people stay in business. This past Monday afternoon I got a commitment from my local exhaust shop to install my exhaust system this Friday morning. Thursday I stripped the old exhaust system off and installed my ram horn manifolds and got everything ready to take the truck in to the shop at 8:00 am this morning. I thought I'd call the guy and just confirm the plan was still on and he was expecting me. He tells me the deal is off because his exhaust man is taking the day off for a long holiday, try it again tuesday! He leaves me sitting here with my daily driver with nothing on the exhaust system but open exhaust manifolds. I called another guy and His price is around $400 or whatever it turns out to be. I guess customer service is not a business practice at muffler shops around here. On the bright side, can you imagine what will be going on in the heads of my fellow commuters when I pull up to them at the light this morning with an open exhaust system?
