No offense to you RIE, but I can't feel sorry for you after hearing that. Being unemployed for so long, I know that having a job is a privilege, not a god given right. And it looks like wasting city paint and time/funds may have revoked that privilege for you and your 'friend'.

Sorry..

-get new front brakes that were missed when the ball joints were installed (1mm of pad left)
-get the blower switch for my HVAC system fixed due to a blown resistor.

Not gonna complain anymore since I have transportation and I learned a big lesson through all of this along with some familial issues that I'd rather not discuss. So I'll leave it at: I'm not buying a Camaro within the foreseeable future. I'll have to win one now.

how much total did you spend fixing up the ford?

you shoulda called the boss right when it happened and informed him of your counterparts slacking.

Sorry..
i didnt do shit. i was bent over painting while he painted a streak down my arm. and second of all, i dont need your pity. i get payed minimum wage to work manual labor 6 hours a day, most weeks 7 days a week. this is crap because ive worked for them for 3 years and every year, we are to get a .50 cent increase. only thing is, i make just as much now as when i started because the mayor and councilmen have run the city into the ground. and, one paint can costs 4.95$ i should know, im the one who bought the paint with MY money and am waiting for them to pay me back. not mad at you, just saying, you wanna act like i dont know what im talking about, you better get the facts straight.

ok rant over

Then I take that back.. lets be pissed at your 'buddy' together (that explanation would have helped in the first palace ). Similar shit like that was what ended my job a year ago. Stupid people + Oh, super just decided to pop up today and watch + oops.. = Outahere!

Except your Eff-up wasn't almost a $250K one.. unlike mine.

Cheer up man, I'm sure once they get it straightened out he'll get his butt canned for doing that and you'll keep your job, for what it's worth. You were doing your job, he was dicking around.

Dude, if I wasn't on Federal property I would have popped his skull so hard..
