Re: Random Thought Thread 2.0

Someone stole your comp g's?? Wtf bro go bust his windows out or something!

No they were stolen in '07, but I just ran into the guy at a stop light. He made it obvious when he rubbernecked me while they drove by.....dumbasses!!!
long story short.. bought set off of Ebay that were chipping/flaking/etc. One of the tires lost 3 lbs. of air a day. They got stollen (from my parking garage). Eneded-up getting insurance buy a new "aftermarket" set (not made by GM) for $800 off of Ebay. Seller was in florida iirc. REALLY happy withem... no air leaking/chipping/pealing/etc. But tried to find them again... with no luck, this was in '07
 
Re: Random Thought Thread 2.0

I turned my hazard flashers on and when I got back in the car, my digital hvac controls were flashing along with the signals?
Is that normal?
 


Re: Random Thought Thread 2.0

hey! mine do that too!


high-five for having a screwy HVAC

Yay! Does yours only do it when no lights are on? I tried it with parking lights on and it didn't do it, but with all lights off it just flicks away..
I swear my hvac system is possessed. Flicking screen and a tempermental ac compressor.
 
Re: Random Thought Thread 2.0

yea my screen bugs.
I have the digital HVAC unit, and only the driver side has heat. the passenger gets ice cold air, no matter what.
BUT i have perfect cold air. just the heat doesn't work right :(
 
Re: Random Thought Thread 2.0

To those of you dealing in sales with international people...Have any of you noticed an increase in quoting people from Colombia?
Holy cow, I have! For the past month or so its been increasing. Then the past 2 weeks, I do at least 2 a day.

Then there was a guy today from Colombia who wants to do a Skype meeting. He only speaks Spanish but has a person who speaks English....So come Monday at 10 am, I will be enjoying a translated conversation via Skype with my boss and this person over his "doubts"...oh joy. Next week isn't here yet and already, I am not looking forward to it one bit! Out of my 3 bosses, they will all be gone come Wednesday and I get to man the office by my lonesome. Between flying to customers in Georgia and Alberta and going to trade shows, its a busy 4 days.

/end semi-rant
I've got a couple customers in Columbia, but haven't gotten any new orders lately. I think most of it is because they are gearing up for SEMA, though.
 
Re: Random Thought Thread 2.0

Saw 2 CTSes this week.
One CTS-V it looked so boss!

Almost got hit today. I was minding my own business driving @30MPH,
when this lady decided to turn into my lane. Had to slam my breaks hard....\
Good thing both of us had our seat belts on, made us spill our OJ from McD's:th_angry2:
Stupid ***** keeps on going like nothin. I just stopped and honked my horn until she turned.
Cool story bro! Drive safe guys, lots of idiots out there!!!:driving:
 


Re: Random Thought Thread 2.0

I almost got t-boned the other day when someone decided red meant go. Monday morning on my way to work I almost t-boned a truck that decided the stop sign didn't apply to him.
 
Re: Random Thought Thread 2.0

So I was trolling Facebook and I got a little side message saying "people you may know" and up came the name of one my neighbors that killed himself back in may of this year. I clicked on it and up came his profile with hundreds if not thousands of wall posts since his death about how all of his closest friends still love him and wish he never left.

I knew him personally too and knew he was a good kid but just never talked about his problems and in the end he just took matters into his hands. I still miss him and so does everyone else. RIP Makrus.
 
Re: Random Thought Thread 2.0

Dear jackass that stole my rims,
I'm glad I could run into you during my lunch break and I'm glad you still decided to keep my pontiac center caps in the rims on your monte carlo. Also, told you that one of the tires was leaking 3-4 lbs. of air a day....is that why you had a spare on? Best of luck and I hope you die a slow death!!!

Sincerely Yours,
Proud owner of new rims. :th_laugh-lol3:

Ben. What the hell man!? WHY did you not act a damn fool?? I would have lost my damn cool sitting at a red light next to the people who stole MY sh*t.

Oh. And when they stole them, did they just leave your car sitting on nothing, like rotors and control arms and what not just kinda on the ground?? Or wut?


And Danielle, where is it you work dear?

EDIT: well. honestly i may not have done much given the potential the idiots had a gun. but IF i had the nerve... lol
 


Re: Random Thought Thread 2.0

Not only did poor Ben lose his wheels, they frikken messed up his pinch welds and screwed up god knows what else...hence my anger for him.

I just thought it was weird the increase in qoutes I was having to do to Columbia all the sudden. And then they NEVER buy...grr
 
Re: Random Thought Thread 2.0

Lol Danielle, glad I could humor ya.
Well I hope the foreigners leave you alone and your week will get better :p

Some are better than others.
And I do feel their pain at times because it does get frustrating having to use google to translate things and stuff gets messed up and confused and you can't figure each other out.

I had a customer I sold to a couple weeks ago tell me I was a good girl :)
kinda odd but it made me smile

And next week is when I might kill myself. Its super crazy and to much to do. We have a system that really needs about 2 weeks to be built...we started yesterday and its gotta be done by Tuesday at 5pm...hold on stress ball
