Default work rant....

We employee 18 journeymen and 2 lube techs and have 3 advisors including myself. One Tech retired last Friday, Two techs are on Vaction and two just called in sick today. The lube techs are useless and we are scheduled to see 100 cars today plus about 20 carry overs from yesterday... to top it all off the A/C is broken in the service offices and I can already feel the swamp *** kicking in at 7:45.... today should be a lovely day... I do enjoy the customer phone calls "what do you mean you cant get me in today???" oh and we are scheduled for about the same amount tomorrow so with todays nonsense I will guess 30 carryovers minimum... I love my job! rant over....

Default Wah, no AC in your little utopia of an office....

I'll bet the company appointed hot little number that rubs down your feet in between having to walk 4 steps to the drive to write up a car is down and out as well. Take a deep breath, relax, file your nails a bit, it will be OK. =P

I can only hope you get a waiter for a cat/conv replacement. and maybe if I wish hard enough it will be a car that just got off the highway driving down from Wisconsin.... :-) I will be thinking of you with my fan blowing on my nut suck in my dry and cool office lover! WOOT!
