I once put out an oxyacetelene torch on my left thumb in high school shop class. I turned my head and a kid bumped my arm at the same time. I ran the nurses office out of ice. It looked like this, but bright white with red flesh in the cracks. Hurt like a #####!!!!

On the plus side, now @Serea71 looks sophisticated when he is sipping his tea with his pinky sticking out.

I bought a new car from my boss. After a few days of driving I realized the back brakes, rotors and calipers needed changing.

I asked one of our employees to do it and they said " after work we can. Let's just see how far along on this grand national I am. I might be busy long after"

So 4:00 pops up which is 1 hour before close and they're totally free now. They avoid me. So at the end of the day I just take the car somewhere to have it done instead. No bigg. They said they'd be on it first thing and have it done by 12.

The next morning I walk into work and my boss is like "wtf is your car doing at the tire shop we always use. Have it brought back now so our employee can do it" I said "well, why not bring it there. they're doing it for cheap and I know it'll get done "

The boss says "you just have to keep asking him over and over to make him do it, he is super lazy. He shows up to work 4 hours late every day what do you expect" I'm not trying to beg the guy... No time.

So I give him another chance. His demeanor was uncertain, not certain and kind of wishy washy when I talked to him next. He just felt shady ... Not someone with a certainty in what they're about to do ... Get what I'm saying

So I doubt the guys doing the work. So I just take it somewhere else because my boss says this guy always makes excuses....so I'm assuming he's blowing me off again and I take it back to the last shop. I don't want the time to come and have him blow me off again

Now Monday my boss is going to ripp me for taking it back and not giving it to our employee



I don't even know why it matters?
It's my car, my money, I will take it where I want

If your boss owned a pair, the deadbeat employee would be gone. Is he a relative or have something on the boss?

Emailed AMain Thursday night to get rid of 2 backordered parts so i can get the rest of my order so ill get that next week but they didn't refund me the money for those parts. Oh well guess thats 30 or so bucks wasted. Thanks Arrma/ Horizon (normal for them) for not supplying distributors with parts. I was originally going to order those off of Jennys RC but most of the time they don't have darn stock of stuff. especially for 6s arrmas.

I try and try not to support Horizon but I just can't get away from them especially if you own horizon branded cars.

Note to self - don't order any out of stock / backorder parts off of AMain unless I truly can wait

Horizon has bought out so many brands and are the distributor for so many others, it’s borderline impossible to even buy a name brand car or plane and NOT fall under their umbrella.

RC products are beginning to feel like I’m buying full size car batteries. 100’s of brands… 3 manufacturers

My boss is a narcissist who has anger issues and other explodes and sometimes treats us like crap and we have a group of employees who seem to be in Stockholm syndrome. Its hard for him to keep new employees so the ones he has who sticks around for years he does whatever he can to keep them and I'm not saying that to be a jerk neither
