So, i work at a pint shop, i don't do much painting myself yet, but i have to get the cars ready for paint atleast, today was my last day before vacation! yaaay!
Now, rewind a few months, we got in a old Mitsubishi Spacewagon, it had been crashed, so it had been fixed using his insurance.
Nothing special with this! we painted the parts that had been fixed, and sent the car away...
Now it started...
Few days later, the guy comes to pick the car up, aparrently, the guys having fixed the damage, weren't done yet, but the people at the desk, thought it were done, so customer came t pick up a unfinished car, complaints were thrown, and as a EW, the customer, as usual, got the manager to agree to fixing it again...
Now, we get a use backdoor, which is supposed to go on it, as the old one weren't good enaugh for the customer.
I'm washing the used part, as it's used.. and dirty, and dented, why they keep insisting on used parts.. is beyond me...
The customer comes in while i'm washing it, and marking the dents to fix them, inspecting the door, looking inside it, then starts complaining...
The inside of the door, that you'll never ever look at again once it's on the car, was dirty! and rusty too! we found a flashlight and peeked inside, and had to explain to him that the dirt/rust, was just something they put on to prevent rust, and he finally left.
We got paint on the door, and it looked like it was new! it was put on the car, and the old pos looks brand new now! all nicely polished up.
Nope... on our last weekend before vacation, we get the car back in, it looks like crap, aparrantly, nothinf was good enaugh, they had cut off the whole rear fender/quarterpanel, inside and outside, and welded on more dented used parts (figures) because the old one weren't good enaugh...
IT LOOKED LIKE IT WAS BRAND NEW!! and he still found reason to complain?!
and now, thursday on the last week in work, he comes in with the car looking like it was welded together by blind multiple amputees using their mouth to hold the welding gun, and expects it done by friday!
Now, this week, a heatwave came over us, it's frikkin' hot! and we get that junk of a car delivered again, this one customer, is making me develop a unnatural hate for Mitsubishi Spacewagon, I'm actually proud we managed to make it look like a car.... AGAIN! by today, we worked our hindquarters off, in this bloody heat, sweating like walking fountains, if he complains this time, with something that isn't actually broken... i'll probably snap.
And this is why the t-shirt i'm wearing right now, makes sense "You can't have Manslaughter without Laughter"
i'd probably laugh manically as i tried to shove his car up where the sun don't shine, until the headlights blind people when he opens his huge mouth to complain again.
