1st Gen Lunchtable Thread - General Discussion

instead of my actual job, I scrolled Carsforsale and found this lil beaut (not affiliated I stg):

1991 Toyota Pickup For Sale in Boonville, NC (carsforsale.com)

 

The number of people from my work who i have let sit.in request queue....

 

This is the way.

You reject it, they'll most likely ask why didn't you accept their request.

You ignore it, they'll assume at some point you may have seen it but chose not to accept (or reject) so they don't bring it up to avoid any awkwardness.

 

@Ozark_RegCab your truck fixed yet?

 

Had almost the same spec as my first car.

@Wulf

 

that would euthanize me

 

No, I asked if he had tested compression by chance, and he never answered after that.

 

@Bandido

Whenever I'm compiling scrap to get rid of, F bombs always get cut (for 11 and 12 gauge)



If 3/16", I'll hold onto it until I can use it all up

Still no further word from the mechanic. I’m kind of afraid he’s fucked something up and is afraid to let me know.

Idk if I wanna bother him with another phone call, but it seems like a fair question to ask if I’m gonna be without a vehicle for another weekend.

 

go down there and visit in person. it's a lot harder for him to dodge you when you're standing in the shop

 

imagine throwing those out the sunroof at tailgaters

(for legal reasons this is obviously a joke)

 

Yea I just don’t wanna provoke him too much. He might just say here’s your truck, take it. I’m kind of at his mercy at this point. Idk if he’s tearing into it, or if it’s still on the back burner. I think I owe him at least one more call before I show up unannounced.

 

No, yesterday when you asked it didn't make sense to go.

Today? You totally should since you haven't heard shit.

 

Don't tempt me

I drop plenty of WTF and YOU FUCKING POS anytime I get in the car

 

You are not at his Mercy. It's your truck. If he hasn't done anything to it and just take it back. I'm pretty sure Arkansas has more than one mechanic that works on Toyotas.

 

Yea I mean I don’t wanna be a Karen, but surely he’s had time to at least make a call explaining what’s wrong with it by now, and asking for permission to order parts and start the job, etc.
