Saying it is "Easy" to work on cars is just like my father-in-law telling me it is "Easy" to build furniture or my computer guy telling me it is "Easy" to build the PC's we have here and set everything up to run correctly. I personally didn't think it was easy to set up my home theater system and I am positive that there are many that could have done it in 20 minutes lol.
Just like anything else, it's all relative...
Now, back to your actual quote (Sorry, I think I quoted the wrong person lol) most shop owners could go on for days about the various cars they have had towed in that the owners "Buddy" did in his driveway or some guy did "After hours" in his garage or his friends cousins sisters boyfriend did for pizza and beer. There are many talented people out there and there are many that are not

I have seen some things done that get towed in here to "Correct" that you just have to stop and wonder what part of that sounded like a good idea at the time
The sad thing is the owner typically ends up paying double what it would have been had they done it here in the first place. The nice thing (For the shop) is that they are almost always customers for life
