What your missing here is that once everything is full then the vehicle has to be tested to make sure that everything is OK after the repairs. If it were guaranteed that everything would be right after every repair then what your saying would be fine, it's not that hard to say, "It'll be about 15 minute for me to get things topped off", or whatever. Problem is that things don't always go exactly right, repairs in one area can often lead to something going wrong in another area (read as the weakest link will always reveal itself), disturbed fittings can leak, etc, etc, etc. When this happens you now have have the time to be able fix whatever is wrong, whatever the cause.
With that in mind, there's nothing worse than having a customer, who has had to bother someone else to get a ride, spend time and money to take a bus or taxi (unless they had a loaner car), taken time off work, etc, etc standing there waiting on a vehicle they were told was ready only to find that it really isn't ready and they will have to disrupt their plans yet again when it really is ready.
There ought to be a law against anyone working as a 'service writer', parts man, or anything even remotely related to the repair field without first spending at least a year in the shop actually working on the equipment that they are dealing with. In years past this was a prevelant thing, shop mechanics moved up in the world and out of the shop into these easy positions as they got older, but nowdays it's the guys fresh out of school with this degree or that degree, that essentially mean nothing to the job at hand, pushing the mechanics to do something they only have the faintest clue about.........and then bellyaching when the mechanic can't make the impossible happen right away in order to make the unrealistic promises that were made to the customer a reality.
