  • Bit pissed off today

    So it all started last Sunday when I left my car out to get a few bits done, I asked the guy on the phone numerous times that I do not want it sitting outside whilst at his place, to which he said no way will it be outside I will have it in the shed straight away and have it back to you at the end of the week.

    So yesterday I phoned him expecting to go collect the car and he says sorry I haven't even started it yet as he had another job come in, I though well that's ok as I'm in no rush anyway, then I asked him was the car locked up Ok out of the elements and he said no its just sitting where you left it on Sunday, well I nearly hit the roof, I know one week sitting outside ain't going to do anything but the simple matter is he said it would be in his shed dry and also I would never leave my car outside so why should he?
    So he then said he will put it away right now and it will be started on Monday, but today I'm going to swing past his house and if the car is still sitting about outside I'm just going to get in it and drive it home, might sound harsh on my part but it just pisses me off thinking of it sitting out in the rain+ plus I'm dying with the flu

    Rant over!

      Thing is he's had 2 Escos's himself so I thought he would of cared a bit more, but I guess he's just like most people, if it ain't his car then why should you care.

                That's a complete joke. I'd be going and taking it back immediately.

                    I'm glad to hear I'm not over reacting.

                      Just use your spare keys and drive it away without telling him.

                      Then wait and see how long it takes for him to call you to break the news.

                        If you rate his work that much and he is really good and you might struggle finding some one who will do the work to the standard you want ( I know a lot of and's) then suck it up, get the work done and do a bufty session on it.
                        Realise that most people can be nice and a shit at the same time. Its human nature. Rarely do you find the perfect person. I know he has lied to you but weight the benefits of getting good work done if he is that good.

                        Diplomacy and discretion is the way to get things done I'm afraid.

                          it just shows a complete lack of respect to you and the car, not only is he not arsed that yours is sitting outside but if yours was booked in then why shove another job in before it

                              He has had his chance, fook that leaving it outside as it ain't the weather it's the fact it's on display should never have pushed a job in if you have a booking and the fact you asked him to put it in and he agreed then didnttake it away fella
