Son-of-a-Beech! I get up early this morning, wash and dry my Marauder after it's 1,200 mile trip to, through and from our Adirondack vacation in the woods. I get to work, dry off the drips and it looks good as new...
An hour later I hear the rumble of landscaper's lawn debris throwers and think, I better move my car. To friggin' late! Grass is plastered all over the front and driver side. Grass, leaves and dirt all over the whole thing. I am in awe of how inconsiderate the bastages are. Not like a Shiney DTR Marauder with a black highly siliconed tires and bra on the front doesn't stand out....
I go up to one of the morons on a lawn thrower and ask who the lead guy is. Sure enough, it's the ****3r who lawn mowed my car. I stop him and ask him WTF is he thinking. I get a bunch of lame ash excuses the.. the.. the wind blew it, had the outlet pointed the other way...... Like THAT is what I want to hear... I spewed out a bunch of whatever in my utter frustration and the guy says he pulled in and admired my car, said he never saw a red Marauder before and it looked sweet. I was about ready to punch this ice-hole. I say, if you admire it so much, why the F did you blow grass all over it? DUH????? Then he say, gee, I'm really sorry. I told him that it's unaceptable to go around not respecting people personal property when in the service business. Yeah, he know that.... Did you call my boss????? I told him "not yet"
I get to the Maintenace Manager to find out the name of the landscape co. Maintence Manager says he saw my car and loved it. Then he looks at all the grass and crap all over it, says, 'That's It, these guys are gone' Walks over and cans them on the spot. That is not what I wanted, but the manger said this was about the 8th time there has been a problem, I was just the last straw.
I called the owner of the Landscape co. and explained they had a responsibility to safeguard people property while performing their services. It is rude and inconsiderate to blow crap all over people cars while performing their tasks. Why don't these lanscapers friggin' get it? I told them if they take their car in for an oil change, they don't expect to get foot prints on their hood...
I was more pissed then, than I am now; but still fuming. I went home on lunch and re-washed my car. Good as new again.
This in about the third time this has happened to me over the years. Firs time was on a black car that was three days old. Bastages blew grass and dirt all over the car and proceeded to wipe off the roof and hood with their sleeves. Stupid asses. Every time this happens, whether to my car of somone elses, I am calling the landscaper and complaining.
Can you say.... OBSESSED ?
Sometimes I just hate people.....
