Oh yes we all have things to do but since im a working stiff and they broke their car i must hurry up. dammit i have a life to

people asking me stupid questions.... like
Why is your door green and white? well, the other door is messed up... oh well why dont you paint that door.... well thats not exactly cheap... i have another door im going to put on. why isnt it on then? i dont have any time. oh and i hate it when people ask why i didnt just buy a new car/truck. i gently tell them i like my old truck no one can take that away from me. and i hate simple jobs that turn into enormous projects... like changing oil... the filter wont come lose... you have to buy a special wrench because of headers, the bolt in oil pan is stripped, then you spill oil all over when putting new in....

Sorry, but I have another one. The unwritten law that headers must block as LEAST 1 spark plug, but bonus points for 3 or 4. Gah

Cobalt, try calling or going and seeing your city council-man-woman or county commissioner, or other elected person of that position, they have the ears of department heads (since they control their $$), it could help.
My peave...when some one or group of people have known they need something fixed or checked for weeks and wait until last thing of the day or week and then want you to drop everything and take care of it, like you don't have anything else to do but take care of them, don't mind doing the work but it always seems to be the same people.

Mine?:
1 People who tailgate when you're already going 10 or more over the speed limit and there is no reason for them to be on your butt. 2 When another driver screws up and then flips you off for it. 3 People who lie to cover there screw up and it gets someone else in trouble. 4 People who can't wait in line like everybody else and insist on moving ahead of everyone and then try to cut over at the last second in traffic. 5 When the toilet paper is out and not one of the kids who last used it had enough sense to replace it with a full roll. Especially if you didn't notice it until after you already sat down. 6 When you go to the bathroom during the night and don't turn on the light cause you don't want to be blinded by it, and when you sit down someone left the seat up and you almost "fall in". lol 7 When someone steals your wifes Support Our Troops magnets off her van at a store. 8 When you need to change lanes and theres an idiot next to you "in the way" who is going just fast enough to keep up with you and cars behind you so you can't slow down either and you end up missing your exit. 9 When at a drive through and you give your order and end it with and thats all, and the idiot still askes if you want an apple pie or something. 10 People who think you and everybody else wants to hear there car stereo as they drive especially at traffic lights or in rush hour traffic and it vibrates your car/truck too. 11 When you get in the shower and forgot to grab your shampoo and soap first. 12 When you go to do something and when you get there you forgot what it was you went there to do. 13 When you go to reply to a thread and then forgot what you wanted to say or how to say it.

I think my pet peeves are all of the above.... But one that was not mentioned is when you are underneath a car or truck and you know stuff is going to fall on your face so you were safty glasses and the crap still falls in your eyes. it's even worse when the job should only take 1/2 hour and it becomes 1hour cause you spend half the time waiting for your eye or eyes to stop watering. I also hate those people who say..... You should do this to your truck and you should do that to your truck it would look way better that way. I hate them. I like my truck the way i'm doing it.

People that can't spell Camaro. I can't count the number of times lately I have seen it spelled Camero. You don't see alot of Nustangs, Nopars, Pords, Fodges, GNC's or Chewy's so why so many Camero's.

Re: Cell Phones - the wife and I saw a young woman last week the was driving alongside of us talking on her cell phone in one hand and smokin a joint with the other hand.
More: People who drive with the pet(s) in the lap or otherwise holding them so the dog can have its head out the window while the person is driving. People who hold there little kids/babies while they are also trying to drive! That just spells dead child if they get into a accident IMO People who drive with out putting there babies or young kids in car seats/ seat belts. People who allow there dogs to run loose in the woods during deer season! Had that happen last year. Going hunting with a guy and when you call him on the walkie to let him know two deer are headed his way, and instead of sitting still he is walking around. And then gets p!$$ed at you for "shooting his deer" after he spooked them and they ran back towards you. Had that happen last year too. When your finger breaks through the toilet paper and the roll is empty and you can't reach the new rolls! People who don't control there kids in the store and let them run around on there own. Working on nice weather days and it rains on your days off!

I just want an explanation why whenever I unbolt something the bolt holes never align again?
Also why is it whenever I need a part, I can't find it, and after I do they are everywhere? |

Why is it when I finally get all the mechanical stuff under control,the friggin thing breaks
![]() When I get everything the way I want it,and then a different part comes around that is way better than the current one,and I have to rethink the whole setup. This is my worst one.Not having the money to do one project and having 4 to do.Man I have had this one a long time,and I still have to deal with it everyday ![]()

People in oncoming traffic with badly adjusted headlights. I usually hit that little button on the left side of the floor to give them a hint,
![]() Tools, nuts 'n bolts, etc. that fall but don't hit the ground. Its like they fall into another dimension. You spend 15 minutes looking for it then forget what the hell you were doing! This just happened the other day. Parked on a side street to do some renovation work at someone's house. At the end of the day you approach the truck from behind, get in and start driving. Then you hear a LOUD scraping noise coming from under the truck. You think you dropped a muffler or something. Jump out and look underneath and see someone's blue plastic recycle box wedged firmly under your exhaust. The owner of the house is home, why didn't he take the empty box back inside instead of leaving it right in front of my truck? The crowning turd in the water pipe. Why do so called friends only call you up when they need something from you? Hey, just call and say HI sometime! Then you can still be my friend! ![]()
