    How Picky are you?

    I find myself doin the dumbest shit over my car sometimes and just thought it would make a good thread.

    So, I had a flat yesterday, got my tire plug/patched and went home. Today I noticed they put a different valve stem cap on, so I went back to discount and made them give me my chrome cap back.

    As I left, I figured they were laughin at me, but F it.... Can't have nice shiny powdercoat black rims with all chrome accents except for one valve stem cap.

    LOL....thats funny..I'd probably do the same thing......if they didn't take it on purpose then they're probably retards so in that case you have to make them aware...and then if they just stole it so then can use it on their cars then that's not cool and in that case screw them.....

    Sometimes some of these people smoke pot on the job and they forget so it wouldn't surprise me.......
    In the past I used to manage a Jiffy Lube store and caught some of the employees there behind the dumpster lightin' up....

    In essence it's not good to ignore little things like that because you paid money for it and even if it didn't cost you alot you have the right to own it...

    Dude, I have done it several times. I went to a shop and asked them to put the chrome sleeve and cap back on after they changed my tires. Well, they threw em out and I made em give me new ones.

    Thats cool. But if you where REALLY picky, you would not have a Patch.

    I was always told not to have em plug it. They plugged and patched, what more could've been done?

    Well, if you're REALLY picky, a new tire.

    If you're REALLY, REALLY picky, 4 new tires.

    Yo when i was 17 i went to a jiffy lube trying to get a part time job, the manager didn't really have an office so for the interveiw we walked around the back of the building, and there were two employees hittin a bowl. we both saw them then when they saw us it looked like they shit their pants. I don't know if they got fired or whatever but the manager called me the next day and offered me a job. I didn't take it though cuz their wages sucked. That's off topic but i had to share.

    As for e being picky every single time someone gets in my car i tell them how easily the doors shut since they are so long and all, they look at me like , and i'm like don't slam my door bitch. Then when they get out i make sure they don't shut the door by using the window. Goddam that pisses me off when they push on the glass like that.
