I must have ALL the bad luck in the world! How should I begin?!?!? Well....about 1:30 today, the head manager at Russell Collision (The clowns that are repairing my car - See Post: Crashed My Pro!!!! for details) called me and said. "Hey Mr Lofton, we got both of your rims in and we are gonna put your bumper on and finish everything up, Oh and someone broke in your car and stole your radio." So I'm thinking....how in hell!?!?! I said to him that you will have to pay to replace my radio and the broken window. He says your window wasnt broken. Well how did they break in the car!?!?!?!? He says well....we took your door handle out to paint the side of your car. WHAT!?!?!?!? What do you mean paint the side of my car.....the only thing you had to do was replace my front bumper!?!?!?!? SO I called him a liar and I ended the call. At this point I'm so pissed my stomach started hurting. Then I started looking on the bright side....well at least I get an updated MP3 player.
20 mins later......He calls me back. Mr Lofton, your subwoofer has been stolen too. I'm thinking can you say 'Inside Job??!??' Hmmmm. At this point he tells me to call my insurance company, so I did. TWO DAMN CLAIMS IN LESS THAN 3 WEEKS?!?!? I bet my insurance company is loving me now!! At this point I'm furious! I decide to leave work early and take a little trip to the shop. When I get there, Officer Friendly is taking a police report. I asked the manager again about the issue with painting the side of my car, He says....'Oh, that was another car, I got confused. I thought it was the blue Subaru WRX over there. Hell.....I didnt even know Mazda made a car like that!" Can you say IDIOT!?!?!?!?!?! Again.....how did they get in my car? Oh, we left your car unlocked. WHAT!?!?!?! You what!?!?!? OH HELL NO!!! My insurance aint paying for SH*T!, and I aint paying a deductable for YOUR screwups! Meanwhile, another clown that works there is looking up part numbers on the PC for the headunit and sub. He says...."Uhhh....what kind of car is it? What kind of Radio? It's Stock?!?!?! For real?!?!?!" I had to revert to 4th grade communication on him....."IT... IS... A... KENWOOD... HEAD... UNIT... THAT... CAME... WITH... THE... CAR... WHEN... I... PURCHSED... IT! I... CAN... FIND... A... PICTURE...OF... IT... ON... THE... INTERNET... IF... YOU... WOULD... LIKE!!!" So I say to Mr Officer, "Before you finish the report, I wanna look at my car to see if anything else is missing" So we go in the back where my car is. I said "Hmmmm.....Clean Job" Hinting to an inside job. I said Uhhhh....about 14 CD's gone..put that down! So we go back up to the front, and I ask Mr Manager how he intends to pay for his fuckup without me having to get my insurance to kick out for it. He turns on ASSHOLE MODE, so I said "give me your higher up's number , let me talk to him!" After talking to Officer Friendly on the side about how he wasnt honest with me in the beginning, I called the puke manager's, boss. He was pretty cool about it, said they called their insurance company, and that they would take care of the charges, even though they have one of those stupid signs stating they are not responsible for ...blah , blah, blah, and pay my deductable if indeed my insurance has to pay. So......I wait still......My clutch is slowing going in my other car that I am currently driving, so time is against me.
Thanks for letting me vent. Hope none of you have to go through this sh*t!
Peace,
Ray
