Yeah, it took a while to get her to that point, but besides him telling her she's lazy and she is worthless, he also constantly told her she was ugly. And that was hard to get her to believe otherwise... But I did it... thankfully, and now she always talks to me as a support group for her. And I just needed to get it all off my chest.

Glad we could help. Even the support group needs a support group once in a while. :)

That is the single most profoundly true statement I've heard in a long time.

I hate operators.

"Well when is it going to be done?"

When it's done.

"Well what time is that?"

I dunno, they've gotta finish welding, then the they have to x-ray it, and then we'll either get it or they'll make another repair.

"Well when?"

When its FUCKING FINISHED ASSHOLE! What's the matter, got something better to do than sit in the fucking control room? Is flipping the condensate pump from off to on something you've really gotta plan out meticulously? Unless you wanna grab a stinger and go weld, sit down, shut the fuck up, and I'll call you when we're ready to fill the boiler.

It's what I wanted to say. What I said to him was, "It'll be done when it's done. If you're that bothered you're welcome to go weld but otherwise I'll call you and let you know when it's done."

Either that, or tell him, "Fine - it's done now. I'll just have to get you to sign this waiver..."

Just got off the phone with one idiot. He started getting stupid and personally insulting with me because I couldn't find his car in our computer system. He insists that it should be there, and refused to give me the information I needed to create a new file. I looked by VIN, last name, company name, phone number, wifes name, and everything I could think of. All he kept insisting was "For what I paid for this piece of shit, you'd better fucking find it."

I start to put together a new partial file for him because I was getting pissed off. He won't even tell me whats wrong with car, just that "I should already know better than him if I'm looking at his file." I finally get to the part where I ask him if there is a service advisor he'd prefer to work with.

What does this dipshit say?

"I've never been there before."

:bangwall:


AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAARRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRGGGGGGGGGGGGGG

Arhhhh i hate car journeys...sat in the back of a Hyundai i30, which is geared so that travelling above 60 produces a grating, high pitch whine...why cant old people in the middle lane drive at the same pace as everyone else. You drive a citroen c4 with a 2.2l engine, you can do more than 50mph!

Good effin' LORD can no one drive? Or at least realize that if you're at a stop sign, you shouldn't pull out mere centimeters from another car? Three friggin' times I'm driving along, got the right of way when someone pulls out and nearly has a collision with me.

Also, while walking to Barnes and Noble, nearly got hit by some bonehead. I look into her window and see her jabbering away on a cell phone. AAAAAAAAAAAAARRRRRRRRRRRRRGGGGGHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!! :bangwall: :madashell:

I subscribe to Jerry Seinfeld's theory: you should be allowed to drive your age in mph. After all, some of these folks don't have that much time left to get where they're going.
