Been trying to find a couple parts for the S. One is a saner/comptech/gendron front sway bar. Search search and search and find that a site vendor (moddiction) sells a front bar thats exact dimensions as the saner. Cool, I can get one there. Go on their site and....... out of stock. They make them based on pre orders. Well that sucks.
Now im looking for alternatives for factory rear hardtop latches. Search search search and wow, moddiction makes these! Cool, I go on their site to buy and.......out of stock. They make them based on preorders.
WTF man! Sell shit you actually have!

I really hate this place.
customer A. constantly finds fault with almost everything I do with them & it's all through 1 manufacturer where our boss (regional mgr) is buddy/buddy with the branch manager at this place.
I have instructions from the manufacturer what they will & won't do. This place constantly contests them - get the ok from the manufacturer & then says I don't go above & beyond for them.
me: Price increase tomorrow.
customer: WTF?!? unacceptable!
me: umm sorry?
customer calls manf. & gets them to give them an extension - says I should have done that, NOBODY ELSE TOOK EXCEPTION TO IT.
customer: we're missing stuff & didn't sign short for it.
me: (yes this is what I have to do) sorry, manf X's policy is - you need to count the stuff when you get it, not stick it somewhere & comeback to me later saying you're missing stuff.
what do they do? They go to the manufacturer who then tells me to do the paperwork to give them a credit. I am the bad person here.
I am also the bad person if I just tell these guys "hey you need to just leave me out of it & call them since everything I tell you is wrong all the time" "it's obvious I can't help you" I have to keep on getting thrown under the buss.
No raise in I don't know how long 2007 maybe? probably earlier than that, no feeling that someone's got my back - asshole customers.
I get here 1st & leave last - everyone else takes half the f@#king day off because?

I'd rather be getting paid more for the work they can't/ won't do. I'll stop posting on s2ki on "company" time when they stop:
drinking during lunch & taking long lunches almost every day
playing golf video games
watching golf on TV AT WORK.
umm being closed (well they're closed & inaccessible for the day) not vacation, golf. But I get to stay at the office & work while they play golf.
just sayin'
