Thread: so aggravated.

A Coronet with push button drive and a 440.Woo-Woo.Too cool for words.

Ya know Barb I just had a thought for you.Guys like that in a small town get to a age for the rest home and can't figure out why no one will play cards with them.LOL.You see,they DO get theirs in the end.

Sometimes ya just gotta vent!! (Although that menstrual thing might border on TMI). When I had my shop I was often surprised, though pleased as well, how many women customers said they appreciated doing business with folks who treated them well. But, come to think of it, quite a few men expressed the same feelings.

Here's an idea for ya Barb...........have a T shirt made with thiis on it, might make a difference in how they deal with you.................

Gezz Uncle Bob.Not to turn this into a political thread of nothing,but did you have to send away to a Third World country to get that??.

Ya know they do kind of do that kind of thing there for reasons we don't understand.

uncle bob that t shirt is a good idea. gary since the guy and i are about the same age we should end up in a nursing home together. that is when i will take my v-8 powered wheel chair and run his butt over.

I think you're onto something, Bob, and somehow I can imagine Barb getting a shirt like that and making it her normal "parts shopping" attire
Got to add, when I was in the USN I had an aquaintence (friend is too strong) that worked in a local gas station evenings, and he had the gift of gab and persona that was often attractive to the girls, for a while.... Late one afternoon an attractive gal pulled in driving a nice little Corvair, and as he checked under the hood he told her that her radiator cap was bad, really needed to be changed and was "....only about $3". She told him to go ahead and put a new one on, and he was quite pleased with himself, pocketing the extra $3. A couple of hours later his smile dimmed as that same Corvair pulled up to the pump island and a guy that looked like a pro linebacker got out. "You sold my wife a radiator cap, and I don't believe that her old one was bad.", he said. "I'd like to return it, if that works for you?" The guy sheepishly pulled out his wad of bills, peeled off the $3, and handed it to the husband (who towered above him by about a foot), and said, "I was really just kidding mister, and didn't think she would fall for that old line. I didn't mean any harm...." Should'a got hit, but the big guy just took the money, got in his car and said, "I don't want to ever come back here again."

now that is a good story roger.

There was this one gas station in town that I would get gas at fairly often and the way it was setup you pumped your gas then drove forward to the attendant who was in a little building where you would pay him. He was the most surly guy I have ever met, and you could say "good morning" or " how are you" and get nothing back, just a scow. One day I couldn't take it any more and said to him "Let me ask you a question. Is it just me you don't like or do you treat everybody like s***?" His eyes got real big and he mumbled something, and I drove off. But from then on he was as nice as pie, even over friendly. Sometimes people just need to be called out for their actions.

Make yourself feel better, next time he is an idiot tell him about it.............or tell the home office of Car Quest, that works wonders too.

Don

hell no do not tell car quest they may transplant him and ship him up here or move him in to upper management barb the guy is just a ass and its to bad but i bet this ass plays this game on guys as well not just women . my sister has been in house building trade she has had to tell guys what she wants and how it needs to be .she had some problems with some workers but they know when they play that girl crap..we will pull the wool over her eyes on her .she will lay in to them hard i seen her do it they have that look on there face like a bear just bit there ass OFF

Years ago, 1960 to be exact, I was flagging at Dahio dragstrip and one Sunday a 60 baby blue Biscayne with a 348 came to the line. There was a gal behind the wheel and that day she put a hurt on all of the guys and since then I have payed particular attention to the women drivers and most can definitely hold their own against their male counterparts. Give 'em hell Barb.

pat i would love to meet your sister. sounds like one hell of a woman. ntf i love to see the women kick ass and take names. i have a metal sign in my garage of shirley. she has been my hero since i was young.
