One of those days when every engine that touches water is broke........for the last four years and the owner wants it yesterday......some guys comes running by with an engine that you worked on two years ago and says it don't run and it's only been setting since you fixed it.....two years ago and his fat partner wants to tell you how to fix it and says "I'll tell you what I'd do" and you think......who gives a fat rat's .....whatever.....and I look at the owner and says...put it in the yard and I'll check it first thing in the morning and the fat friend says "is that all!!!!!". You fixed it and supposed to run". I look at him and says....please sir...your really ragging me and I'd like to take the top of your head off and shove it where the sun dont' shine.....but that's just me thinking......I take the owner aside and tell him I'll take a look first thing in the morning and see what's up. He's very thankfull and says give him a call. <br /><br />Just one of "those dazes"......I need a beer.<br /><br />GEEZ!!! I love this board....you can rant and you feel better......<br /><br />No replies neccessary.......just a rant.

Re: And Then You Get.....

I underdstand! It's funny where I work a customer will call when they want something and say they are only 10 minutes away.... we wait and even work late for them. Customer happy.<br /><br />Now when the tides turn and the customer walks in and demands something done right now! and you explain that the parts have to be ordered.... the customer screams "I had to drive alllll the way here..... Customer not happy.<br /><br />Gee 10 minutes away!!!<br /><br />Had a customer that wanted to return a scooter tire yesterday.... purchased THREE years ago (the cheapest on the market at the time) and it is showing too much wear!!! Oh yeah it has 6000 miles on it!<br /><br />The cloud that loomed had a golden lining. A very picky customer was not happy with the finish on the new 2006 motorcycle. Parts were replaced three times. The customer made alot of noise and yelled that we sold junk (they bought a new Honda) and we were dumb. Well... the parts were perfect the customer told us it took too long bla bla bla bla.... Now for the lining in that cloud.... the customer left the dealership and was riding the "perfect" Honda and lost control :eek: Slightly abraded forearm and a severely scratched, dented and bruised Honda! :D <br /><br />It's Karma!
