Misc Installing a passenger side mirror? - Page 35

Hootie · 03-10-2013, 04:49 PM

some dipshit kicked/punched my side mirror off and I had to go to ebay to buy a replacement...

I am not savvy enough (I'm a dipshit) to install it myself and I am getting a little bit of work done tomorrow at an auto shop and I'm going to bring the mirror with me and ask them to install it for me...

how much should I be expecting them to charge me for that labor since I have already bought the part?

but there has been no Alex Smith references in this thread until just now so this has been my favorite thread of the month so far

Yeah, you didn't even piss on anyone. I'm a bit disappointed.

Alex is actually way more popular than all the Olathe Car dealerships added together after this thread.

I think my favorite part of this thread is watching the "Mexican" (who is in the financial industry) beat up on the "professional" auto mechanic.

Oh and NO, Exotar, Hootie did NOT use the word ENTITLED incorrectly. He pretty much nailed its usage.

You could have said:

"Yo, I work at the auto industry. No, we won't do it for $20. Don't even bother asking, that's insulting."

And I would have said, "gee, thanks. That's what I needed to know."

and thread could have been over

instead you called me a cheap dipshit because I don't feel the need to put a lot of $ into a car with 211,000 miles

I also quoted quite a few people over the course of a few pages, including your posts in ill refute of others' responses.

Condescending is one thing, as it is interpretive. However, it doesn't fit your accused crime of being.....whatever....because that post isn't riddled with "you're a dumb ****, yada yada yada", I accurately described to you the business, what you'll expect to find if you did this or that, or the other, and so forth.

Sorry for painting you an accurate picture, next time I won't do you the favor of saving you the hassle or feeling of stupidity when you attempt such an insult.

Seriously, don't cry in your cocoa puffs about it.

Definitely in a realm between its infancy and its adolescence. I say this with respect to the age of every other industry out there, which you don't seem to be doing, or seem to be ignorant of.

There are few industries "younger" than the automotive industry, if you take the time to actually think about it.

Exoter, do you eat your lunch all alone?

I don't have time for lunch most days, but usually they are spent discussing customers we might run into, or the various intricacies of our work. At least right now in the off season that is how it is. During football season, dear lord you could cut the tension with a knife at our shop, we have a Donkey Fan and the entire F&I department bleeds red and gold.

Ehhhh, probably more likely to be around the $1,500 mark in all reality, but his is a stealership, so you'll pay hourly for that, instead of a quoted book time.

There was talk about someone pissing on his door handle, though.

Well, you're going to have a fun, long time arguing with AC. I think he just might be pretty opinionated. And it kind of seems like maybe you are too.

Enjoy.

HA, this one won't take long. Besides not much left to say in this thread that hasn't been said by others.

But I will take the time to explain why Hootie used the term "entitled" correctly.

Oh I definitely am opinionated, of that everyone should be sure of.

However, he simply did not use the word correctly for what he was trying to describe, based off of the argument we were having. Nor did it accurately reflect the work he was describing by comparison, with any virtue towards their completion.

Only that he likes Mexicans because they aren't entitled and greedy.

Entitled, in this case, has no place, as the argument of entitlement is unfounded in the argument.

If he wants to broadly generalize Americans as entitled, there isn't the argument to make that statement in, as the entitlement issue has no footing without reason, and without reason there is no real argument.

By all means do so, I LOVE a good debate with someone who has functioning brain cells.

I don't really know what's going on, but I feel it is unfortunate that we will never catch the prick who knocked hooties mirror off.

That son of a bitch created all kinds of problems and he needs to pay.

Is he paying a Small time shop? Stealership? Mexican? We need to know!

Abort. Abort.

You're in over your head.

He'll start throwing words at you that are made up and make you think you know them.
