also not a customer but was going to troubleshoot a guys amp and subs for him, he said he hooked it up like the instructions said. he had a beer can screwed into the firewall with topsoil in it. the ground wire was going into the can down in the dirt. i was like man wtf is this, he said the instructions said "wire to good ground" so i went to lowes and got some new dirt. i was like wtf...true story.

i think every place i work im surrounded by stupid people...as a matter a fact i think they flock around me everywhere i go

Long story short she had to explain to the owner that he needed to be in the car during the alignment.

Ha, wow. That is funny, and kind of embarassing to me if I got that out of control fat.

"Sir, your car is not normally calibrated to suit your fatness. We need you in the car when the suspension is fully compressed to change the angle at which the tire sits.....yes sir, you are bottoming out the side of the car you sit on."

lady come in to an oil change place i was working at and said i think i need to add some more oil, i just added some and its making funny noises(we could hear it knocking as she pulled in), and the oil pressure light was on. checked the dipstick and was way too full. opened the oil cap and the oil was even with the top of the valve cover. ended up doing a drain and refill, and i shit u not there was about 4 or 5 gallons of oil in it. she said she didnt know how much to put.

I've heard of a similar story, and there was an earlier story of this thread where a kid in his HS automotive class had to "fill the engine with oil."



not a customer, but a lady come into the same place and said she had her 09 bmw m6's oil changed at jiffy lube(fawker was so bad ass, expensive ass rig), andyways she said it didnt have any power and was idleing funny and starting to ski[, and about 10 different dummy lights were on. checked the oil, and nada. noticed the washer fluid reservoir was looking a little funny colored. that dumbasses put the oil in the washer fluid.

I want you to know that I did not get this the first time around. He put the oil in the washer reservoir. Ok, haha. But NO! The Jiffy Jackass neglected to put oil in the motor, too! (I assumed the motor had oil in it, too) Wooooooow....


one last one. working at same place, just started like 2 days earlier. this redneck inbred joker with meth teeth and a cig hanging out with an ash like 3 inches long(looked like a white leonard washington) said he got his f350 7.3's fuel filter changed there and its leaking fuel pretty bad. checked everthing out(while the fool said look at the fuel, gotta stick your head under there to see it, watch your eyes, looks thats fuel, watcher self(while still smoking the cig lol). anyways i traced some fuel lines around and the fawker changed the head gaskets and had the hardline btween the block and heads...derrrr

It's not like a sensor that you forget to plug back in. It's THE damn fuel line. **facepalm**

also not a customer but was going to troubleshoot a guys amp and subs for him, he said he hooked it up like the instructions said. he had a beer can screwed into the firewall with topsoil in it. the ground wire was going into the can down in the dirt. i was like man wtf is this, he said the instructions said "wire to good ground" so i went to lowes and got some new dirt. i was like wtf...true story.

How can you have common sense to put it in dirt FROM the ground, but you can't follow the picture of putting a wire TO a chassis ground. I guess "hot" & "ground" is not known to everybody. So, I guess I shouldn't criticize him for that, but it's still kind of funny.

Check tires for winter and get estimate if needed.














Oh, forgot the other line...

On start there is wild circulation that shakes the front of the car.

On start there is wild circulation that shakes the front of the car.

That's what she said...

 

[adsm08]

That's what she said...

That is exactly what she said. And I still have no clue what the real concern was.

 

[TheTopher]

That is exactly what she said. And I still have no clue what the real concern was.

Tell her it's a common problem with that car and there's not much you can do about it. Then have her start up a diesel truck and say "See? It's much worse in this one!"

 

[adsm08]

Well, according to the head adviser this lady has two nearly identical cars. I'm wondering if she didn't bring in the wrong one.

 

[AgPete139]

Tell her it's a common problem with that car and there's not much you can do about it. Then have her start up a diesel truck and say "See? It's much worse in this one!"

Ha! "It's also much louder, ma'am!"

That's what she said...

"Ma'am would you like another demonstration?"

Wild circulation...ha. She should be shown a 1971 Chevelle with a blown 454. *Rev*...ROCK!

...rock, as in awesome!

The place I used to work all ROs were hand written. The owner was the king of chicken scratch. He wrote up a RO for an '89 Jag, but it looked like he wrote Vag.

I wrote one up that said 93 Aardvark, when one of these came in:

 

[AgPete139]

What IS that?

 

[adsm08]

What IS that?

It's an aardvark. Duh.
