The other mechanic was much faster on his feet and told the guy, Nope only have American crescents. The doofus dude shook his head and left. 1 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

jeepwm69 7,600 Posted April 24, 2022 Really stupid mistake yesterday. Luckily I was off to the side. In my nightmare of a shop I’ve misplaced the new intake boot I ordered for my buddy’s 450. Got frustrated and was looking in the drawers of one of my big stackable tool chests (probably 48” long and about 5.5 feet high, top unit sitting on bottom cabinet). When you open several drawers at once bad things happen; weight goes to the front and the whole thing tipped over and dumped. Just took me a couple of hours to get my tools put back where the belong. Had I been in front of it it could have been ugly…. 1 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Yesterday I went to Walmart to get a can of CRC cleaner. $4.97 on their website. $6.97 in store! Huge % increase! Wouldn’t price match their own website, so I had to order it online and have someone bring out to my car. I’m glad I’m a bit of a hoader because as this continues, I won’t be buying anything Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
