      He probably is a little less concerned being it is a mutual friends vehicle. At the same time he is not performing any work involving fluid leaks. He also keeps the shop floors meticulously clean. If it were your personal vehicle, attempt to have a mind set on what the final product is. Did you receive the car back with a clean floor mat? Then thats all that matters. Maybe he detailed it before giving back to you, but in the end it is clean.
