Oh I did!!! Dumb A$$ parked a car 3 deep when there was 4 open spots. A customer nearly hit the car backing out of the shop. I started on him so loud the Service Writer heard me and then tore him a new one! He then said HE got reamed because I said something. So its my fault. I wanted to lay him out right then and there!

Tomorrow will be fun, no boss and no service writer to save his A$$!!!!

intimadatorsquizz · Moderator

Lol Dave... you need some r&r from that dump..... see you tomorrow.

frankoc · Guru

Dave, that sounds like a reality TV show!

Have a great weekend all.

twomanymontes · Moderator - Monte Hunter Lead Investigator

Frank, This shop is more than a reality TV show. I swear, one of these days, The security tapes will be on you tube.

Can't wait until I move into my new place!! So tired of my old bedroom!

twomanymontes · Moderator - Monte Hunter Lead Investigator

Oh man!!! Today might be the final nail in one guys coffin!

The kid did front brakes on a Ford Exploder, but never tightened the left rear wheel. got a half mile down the road and it came off. Wrecked the rim, the quarter panel and the trim piece. Plus bent the wheels studs. I had to go and get the wheel back on during rush traffic!

I'm glad I don't have to fix it tomorrow. I got enough to do!

intimadatorsquizz · Moderator

holy chit Dave....where do they get they people from? at least no one got hurt...well except for the unemployed idiot that forgot to tighten the lugs.

twomanymontes · Moderator - Monte Hunter Lead Investigator

Jim that's what happens when you make a car washer a mechanic. He still has a job for now. But at least he was tolerable today.

But on a better note, I'm officially an Uncle!!! My sister had a baby girl this morning. Sydney Grace Forsythe 5lbs 11onces. I can't wait to torment this one!!! LOL!

just weekends on the cape, wouldn't mind spending a week though.

twomanymontes · Moderator - Monte Hunter Lead Investigator

A vacation!! I could go for one of those.... Extended weekends are nice getaways, but to actually go somewhere and just do nothing......... That never happens, LOL!

29 hours in 3 days and then had to sit in a training class tonight till 10. I'm shot! Hope to get this Taurus transmission job done 1st thing in the morning, then finish the BMW X-5 suspension and brake jobs, then the window regulator, door locks and the parking brake in the Sprinter Van. After lunch, I'm sure they will find more crap for me to do!

intimadatorsquizz · Moderator

Dave you really do need some F it time.
that's funny you'll do all of that before lunch....lol

Jim, I started at 7:45 this morning, knocked out the BMW's lower control arm, 4 sway bar links, front brake job and degreased it to find the oil leak. Went to pull it out then was told the oil change wasn't done and still needed a tire rotation. Did that and then spent a half hour trying to reset all the maintenance lights. Then installed the transmission in a Taurus, Went to pull the Sprinter in around 11 and found out that it was gone. Guess it comes back Monday. So I pulled in a Malibu and fixed the window, the rear wiper and the rear hatch release. Then a Starter in another Taurus and condemned a Saturn for 3 broken coil springs, a rotted Subframe and a broken tone wheel on the right front axle. Then took lunch around 1:15. After lunch I slowed down a bit and just did a few oil changes, a brake job and a fuel pump.

I don't have time to screw around like the other guys do. I need to keep moving or I get thinking of nasty things to do to the idiots I work with.

Tomorrow, I have a Grand Am that needs every brake line replaced, And the service manager is out, so I have to be in at 7 to get things moving.

what a slacker you are...lmao

j/k bro that is a ton of crap you did in a short time.

hopefully the Grand am goes well and maybe you can enjoy the weekend some.

twomanymontes · Moderator - Monte Hunter Lead Investigator

Yeah, Today I slacked..
Didn't get to finish the Grand Am yet, pulled the old lines, bent, cut, flared and installed the new lines, still have bleed the brakes. I kept getting pulled today. Axle shafts in a Saturn Vue, a condenser in a Towne Car, a SkyJacker installed in a 2013 Silverado, Struts in a 07 Denali, a few oil changes and Inspections. Just too tired and sore to really put in an effort.

I tried talking my boss into paying us flat rate, He said it wouldn't be fair. I'd be the only one going home with a paycheck...

Cleaned the Interiors tonight, getting up early to get the cars ready for the show. Have a great weekend everyone!!!
