Throat Punch Tuesday

I would like to TP the tire shop employees for making this the biggest headache ever for getting new tires.   After 3 trips to the shop, it is still not completely fixed a week later and now have to make a 4th stop this week!    Buying new tires should not be this difficult, gah! 

 

Anyone or anything that deserves a throat punch in your world?   Get it out here, if you must!

    WTH is wrong with people? This sounds like a giant cluster for some new tire...

    Don't you have a discount tire there? They're the best, by far!

  • Ha! 

    I like Goodyear. I've never had a problem with them. That sucks though, Orange.

    I don't have anyone I'd like to throat punch at this moment. So, wow, maybe my positive thinking really is working?

  • I want to throat punch my boss. Over the past 3 years every time I make a mistake, he keeps threatening me that he's going to replace me with someone else. He likes to feel superior in putting me down with that amongst other things. I know I need to look for another job but right now some other things are important that I need to do to get done. A job is a job to me right now. Gotta do the best that I can do under the circumstances.

  • I would like to TP people in general who offer advice about something that they have absolutely no experience with, but yet think their opinion is the gospel.  Drives me frickin' crazy.

  • I would love to throat punch my work computer system. It has been having issues all day, making it really hard to be productive...

    OPS--sorry about the tires being a debacle! Were the special order, or something complicated, or is the tire place just epically failing?

    It was one of those times where it feels like a perfect storm of fail, just one thing after another.  First they order my tires (they are low-profile, so I guess they don't keep them in stock?) and when they come in, one of them is the wrong size.   I get the rest put on, go back 2 days later for the last one, and they broke a stud.   So I have to go to another shop to get the stud fixed (all paid for by discount, since they effed it up) and that shop said they have the wrong sized lugnut.   So the tires are all fixed, the stud is fixed, but now I have to go back again for the right lugnut.     4 trips, for one set of tires.

  • OPS, drive 3 hours to us, get your tires for way cheap at H's dealership and be on your way! <3.

     

    I want to TP my immune system. Now is not the time for what my mom calls the 24 hour flu.

    That is major suckage. Hopefully trip number four is your final, and these are the best tires ever.  At least they are paying for it all. I had a coworker who had a flat, went to the store the put the tires on, and they broke all of the studs when pulling off the tire to change it. They convinced her that she had to pay for it. I shook my head, and said, no, I imagine you have never touched your tires, so my guess would be you were not the one who cross threaded them putting them back on, so, probably not your fault. But she swears this is an honest company...It always makes me angry when I see tire stores taking advantage of people like that.

    And I want to throat punch two whiny brats in my life, that rather than dealing with a person or issue, they go crying to a person in charge, to ge them to fix it. If something bothers you, woman up and fricking say something. You're not 8 where being a tattletale is neccessary and it is doing nothing more than making people think you are a whiny, snivelling child. Handle your isht or STFU!!

    /end rant...I am done.

    The nerve of someone wanting you to do a good job when they pay you to do exactly that!

    ^That was sarcasm, sweetie.
