Okay, so. My windshield wiper blade on the driver's side is DEAD. Yes. Doesn't work. It's supposed to [and has] rained all week. Oh life. You seek to beat me down.
I was hoping that it was because of the accident I had last March so insurance would pay for it, but the dealership licensed bodyshop wanted 85 just to look at it. The place around the corner did it for free. :| He also told me it probably wasn't the accident from a year ago. It just broke. So I'll save my 85 dollars just so they can tell me I have to pay for it all myself and get it done at the shop around the corner.
Part from the dealership = 180. JUST for the PART. Are you shitting me? Guy says he'll look for a used one. Okay, that's good. Finds one for 75 bucks. Then 77 for labor and whatever to fix it. 150. That's cheaper than the damn part from the dealership. Score \o/. Even if it breaks again, it would have been 250 for the new part and the labor vs getting it fixed twice for 300 bucks total. I'd rather give them the money to fix it again than the other place. Screw them. >:
Comcast had a recruitment session today. I went in, probably passed the first part for math and shit. Srsly, that was pretty easy, though I didn't finish all the questions. It's that, 'Ask you the same question 3 different ways part' that probably failed me. I hate those. I answer truthfully, and really, that's my downfall. They don't want the truth. They want you to become a better liar so they can hire you. Srsly. If I know what I'm talking about, I can get any job I apply for, as long as I don't have one of those day psychological tests that's so common now. Making you second guess yourself. Hard to be cynical and get a job when you think most people will lie to save their ass. You KNOW it happens. What are you supposed to say? 'No, I think people will tell the truth even if they get in trouble for it.'?
'cus that's a bold faced lie right there.
Anyway. Eggs:
Now I'm going to eat a nice, big bowl of cereal, watch a little TV, then go visit Pop Pop in the hospital and hope it doesn't rain.
Fucking tornado warnings. :|
