    Talking might get a job at a rice rocket store!

    so i went on a little job application run tonight since I need a job badly. I picked up some applications at some places and as I was leaving Red Robin I saw this giant rice rocket store called Super Autobacs. I'd never been inside of it but I always wondered what it was like inside. ALL the local ricers go there and show off their cars, and there is parking out front for all the raced out ones. So I pulled up and parked there in my SS, walked by all the rice rocket kids who were shocked to see such an amazing car amungst the lawnmowers and went inside. It was like a fast and the furious candy store. complete with a body kit section, Sparco seats, a wide variety of fart can exhausts, and lots of cheap rims. Anyhoo, I'll apply anywhere, and I know enough about cars to work there, and I could always enjoy teaching other not-so-knowledgeable teens on what's up with cars. I'll be applying there last since I don't really wanna work there, but eh, I could use money. and it's 2 miles from my house. and I could prolly get some money on the side beating rice rockets $20 at a time.

    please do yourself a favor and stay out of a "tuner shop". it is so incredibly ripe with misinformation, lies, inflated egos, and utter toolery to turn even the hardest core person into a screaming little bitch. you will, by the third week, be in a fetal postition, and crying in the corner. i shit you not. first of all there is atleast one asian in every tuner shop to sort of project the authenticity of the shop and its apparent skills because, well, a real asian works there. and they also work at china king, but thats neither here nor there. secondly, the people that come in are of the lowest class, constantly conjuring up stories of how they bested a 6 speed camaro and dusted a gt on the way home from the club where they picked up 10 bitches because of that completely trick looking fire extinguisher mounted on the a-pillar. now there may in fact be a few "quick" imports that roll through, but there power numbers will be grossly imbellished and you will hear alot of "yeah, i did the 18g swap", and "i turned the blow off valve downward so it redirects more air into the intake." you may even hear things like "yeah im getting a skyline, its coming next week" or my favorite...." i guess i'll just lower it and get the rear sway bars set up for the turbo."

    you may think im joking, but trust me on this, i could not be more right. i have been to this version of hell, and upon exiting i immediately checked my crotch area to make sure the shop didnt take em away from me....

    haha, good point. I'd rather work at Red Robin. My dad's offering to pay me $20 an hour to work for him doing computer stuff for our sign company, so maybe I'll do that. we'll see what happens.

    ya, it's pretty bad. I'll probably avoid it. I'm a clean cut white boy, I should be able to find another job.

    haha, no neck tattoos for me. I was considering getting the family crest on my arm, but I'm taking my time deciding. the thought of having something on me permanently kinda trips me out.

    sigh.... sounds like this guy who has a 2002 Acura RSX S-type who told me his i4 was better than my LS1 because it gets better gas mileage. he loves his car, so I didn't talk shit on him, but still. I had to let it go. at least he knew he didn't have anything else to combat it.

    dude tattoos are the sweetest. im getting about 5 more and then i dont know what will happen. im sure once i start lifting weights and playing hockey again i will feel the need to look as psychotic as possible. dont worry about it, just take your time and really see what you want. it is, for all intents and purposes, permanent and you dont want to look like a moron for trying to be yourself.

    yep, this just further confirms the point. as John would say about the ricers "this just proves they dont know dick!"

    haha, I know what you mean. what originally started my conversation with the one guy was he had a picture of his engine on myspace and it said "K>B, only car guys will get that". so I left him a comment saying "LS1>K " and he replied with the "i4>v8 better mileage". to which I replied "I dunno, 340 hp and 360 ft. lbs. of torque with 19 mpg city and 29 mpg highway is pretty good if you ask me." with no response back.

    i noticed ricers and compacts require body kits for getting looks on the damn car...when muscle v8's don't really require.....a damn thing for them to look nice....except the nostrils on the trans am
