muffler replaced with straight pipe

My rear muffler fell of last week and the local shop had trouble finding a source for the rear muffler assembly. They replaced it with a straight piece of exhaust pipe. It sure was cheaper !! The car is not any louder than it was before with the big old muffler hanging down there. Anybody see a problem with this. The mechanic said the car would probably be happier with out the additional restriction. The car still has the smaller muffler that sits about midstream of the exhaust system. All seems OK so far
