Momentary mumble.
Yeah I was in the OReilly's I work at last night just getting some
stuff to do an oil change and this punk MF'r comes in bitching at me
for selling him the wrong headlight and getting all in my face about
how I was working and sold it to him. Like I was supposed to remember
that from at least 4 days ago?? I've delt with how many people since
then??? I said my goodbyes to the guys I was BSing with and out the
door I went with the punk huffing at a coworker trying to get the
right headlight. OH well, life goes on. I finished the oil changes got
the GTI in the garage and started ripping parts off of it!!

I replied, "Well, what kind of P/S fluid did you put in?" She asks her boyfriend, "Lucas." "I'm sorry, I should say what color..." She asks again, "Red"... "Okay," I replied, "that is the cause for the whine there. You need to use the green P/S fluid we sell here- "Listen, will you just tell me the fucking price of the goddamned P/S pump?! Every time I call you fucking people, you tell me I put the wrong fucking color this or that in it. Just tell me the price of the fuking pump!" Now I am suprised I did not hang up on her, or scream back. Instead I said, "Ma'am, you do realize that I am on the learning curve with this, don't you? And you also realize that I am trying to help you?" "Just tell me the price of---" "Alright, hold on..." Boyfriend comes on the phone, sounds like a real mouth-breather, "Yeah, how much is the pump?" He mutters in
