Is it normal mechanic got my number off the computer and texted me?
I had my car worked on not too long ago and as I was paying, the mechanic asked me for my number because it was not in their system on their computer. Since I know many businesses have customer contact info in their system, I didn't think of this as abnormal and gave it to him.
After I left the shop, he began texting me and trying to have a casual conversation that had nothing to do with the car, almost as if he was trying to get to know me. It was just kind of odd and I feel it was unprofessional to ask for my number under the guise of it needing to be in the system just to start texting me.
