Do that, and you might as well yell at the guy you see in a mirror.

They are really steering knobs.Thought things were only getting stoooopid in the U.S.Man buns.....they are boy buns, head knots or knobs.
More of a reference to lesbians - those who don't need men in their lives....until they need a man.Is that one of those "gender neutral" **** terms I saw in another post?![]()
Was going to say the same thing! I got where I cringed every time someone drove up with an expensive car and dressed up like they had money. It's like we're catering to the blue collar working class and why are you here!? Are you trying to make a good impression or just to scam? At the time I was working full time at the refinery plus building engines and rear ends and trying to help my now X prove to her family that she had what it took to run a business and after a few years I got tired of being the grunt. About that same time we had a competitor that was making offers so I told my wife the next time they come in, sell the damn thing to them because I was done and they just happen to come in within the next 30 days. Less than a year later they called asking if we wanted to buy it all back including their customers too and a polite no was given lol. Dealing with the public can really suck but I also know how it can be dealing with contractors who are scum of the earth.The more they have,,,,,the louder they CRY!![]()
To finish your sentence; Do unto others as you would have them do unto you. If you're irrational with them, and they're irrational with you. Take them out of the equation, and you're just being irrational to yourself.
Many calls I receive are from the Police dept for disabled motorist or a wreck.I treat them as they treat me.I don't charge for the entertainment.If, they are locals I might get repeat calls from them.The rates are posted on my tool box,yet certain nationalities always try to get a better price and get pissed when there is no "discount"! I can get very sarcastic with morons,,,,even charge a MORON fee sometimes,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,There isn't anything wrong with referring a customer to someone else when they're irate. The path you take to do it though, is on you. You can slope to their level, or you can calm and smooth. Only one will make you coin
My buddy Cliff aka 'mowpar' was accosted today by an 'Independent Woman' in front of a bunch of customers, and friend at his workshop today. Cliff was so horrified at her audacity that he couldn't wait to tell me what happened.
Apparently this 'woman' started ranting and raving about the poor quality Bosch wiper blades that Cliff had fitted some time ago. She says she got caught in a heavy rain downpour and couldn't see where she was going. Now, being a school teacher, you would think she could tell the story correctly. Cliff pointed out that in all his years of fitting Bosch blades, that he had never had a customer complain about their quality. I am one of his customers, and he uses the Bosch brand exclusively. Upon inspection of the car, Cliff pointed out the heavy build-up of bee excrement and sap plus general dirt and crud, along with a multitude of scratches.
This woman then started on about getting the car serviced and having an oil change done. Cliff was having none of this, and she pointed out that her 'ex-husband' gave her advice on where to get the car serviced. She had been told to go to the local Toyota Service Centre and have the work done. Cliff wished her luck with that, and said not to be surprised by a $600 bill for an oil change. She disputed the $600, and then said she could do it herself, being an independent woman and all......
She then turns to Cliff's Trainee Caleb, and cracks this one out at him - "You know.......men love it when they feel like women need them to do stuff like this"
Caleb quick as a flash replied "I got rid of my last girlfriend because of all that ****."
Cliff then pointed out that he had observed the local kids saunter past his workshop for many years now, and he had noticed something. He said about the advent of the Man-Bun and all these stupid fashion statements...and said that "The boys are now girls, and the girls have become boys." and followed with "It's fanny (pussy) licking lesbians like you who have ruined society"
With that she got in her car and left.
I'll point out that Cliff doesn't normally get all riled up like that, but she started it and she pushed a few buttons.
Being on the road I have to deal with some interesting ********,,,,,,,
A great line to bring out.better to be pissed off than pissed on...........
