Today was a great day!!!

Post by audiovibe »

Well it started great any way. Went to work at 7:00 this morn like every morn, and wasnt a whole lot piled up on my desk so I left about 7:30 and took the rest of the day. About 8:00 a buddy asks me to do a friend of his a favor and install some audio equiptment and build him a box. No prob a lil extra money never hurt any one. Now it starts to turn the other way. Finish the install and box about 1:00, hes happy, looks like a lil girl in a doll shop, tell him all that is left is the predetermined payment and he says he dosent have any money and cant pay me until the 18th. Well that dosent work because I dont know him, my buddy tries to vouch for him but i will not budge, It would be one thing if it was in my buddys car and was his stuff, hell I would have done it for free. To shorten that part of the story I am now sitting on a couple of new woofers in a beautiful new enclosure until this guy gets paid. Now Im just kinda ticked but still in a good mood because I ordered a replacement wheel for one that had gotten brake fluid on it. The new wheel came in yesterday so I went and picked it up. Didnt feel like switching out the wheels and tires yesterday because it was raining all day, thought I would do it today. Got three wheels changed out and went to put the last one on. Now Im pi55ed because the bolt patteren is not even close, I look at the box the wheel came in and it says that it is 5x100 but its not fitting. Call up my wheel guy and tell him the problem, and he tells me to bring the wheel back in. I get back and he measures the bolt patteren and its 5x112. He calls his distributer and tells them. ending of this part is that new wheel is on the way yet again. Then out of curosity I ask him what they charge to swap wheel and guess what he says $2.00 per wheel, $8.00 for me to not have to get dirty, why the hell didnt I ask that before. So that was my day in a nutshell, other then the other good part is I got picked up a new camera, no more using the phone or the wifes pink camera. I'm very sure someone on teh forums had a worse Tuesday then I, but I wanted to share.Aron
