My Car Mechanic is better than yours

Recently I got my rear breaks fixed for my car and so had to call my mechanic Tom. Till now I was under the impression that Tom was just another car mechanic. I got to know him better while he came to pick me up to buy some parts like Master Cylinder, Break shoes etc. In the ensuing chit chat I find out that he has a Masters from California and a Ph.D from Southern Illinois. Before making his avocation as his profession he worked for General Electrics. Now tell me does your car mechanic is that professional ?? Besides that he is a wonderful wonderful individual ! I feel great to know him as a person.
