Good evening kind readers,
It is late on a Friday and I just finished cleaning and prepping a truck for tomorrow in one of my paint booths called London. I named our two paint booths London and Paris. Even the reps know when I call for service to ask, is it Paris or London.
My painter agreed to paint it in the am on a Sat, for me, God love the man.
I have been very depressed lately, thus, you have not heard much from me. It is hard to be funny when everything stinks. I have lost my son, and nothing can make that ok.
So I will give it my best.
We get these calls...I have never talked about the phone calls, just the people who come in. I get hung up on so many times because I cannot give someone a price on a "dent" over the phone. "Well, thanks for nothing!!!" click.
Peter did an estimate for a very nice gentleman, a huge discount and he make an apt. for Monday.....today he called, said, "I do not like you people and I won't be there Monday." CLICK. What the hell..??? Was it Bi-polar or a bad reaction to alcohol???
I am thinking everyone in the shop needs to spend one half a day on the phones to work in the back.
I had a lady bring her car back today complaining about spots on it.....bug guts..., yes, bug guts. Oh yes, that is my problem lady. let me repaint your car!
It was a stress day in the shop. Man drama to the max. I did manage to get stuff done, I just want to tell the GUYS to grow up. Egos, why did God create them?
So, I continued my conversation, "what is normal" With my PHD in Psychology friend. Definition of Normal: 2% variation from the mean. Ok, I now have several definitions. I wish I could talk to the College prof of Sociology who first defined "normal" for me. Is there a normal???? Not here!
EVERYONE! have a great weekend. Shangre La
