hahaha see the diff between me being a contractor is that i want more work bcus the more i do the more i make, i can choose to go out with 100 stops and go home with a crappy paycheck but when u go 120 and up stops u make a lot more plus i cant fail meaning i have to get to all the business b4 they close or else they notice i cant handle it and will take away my work/money, ups in the other hand gets paid per hour so those SOB's will be happy with 100 stops and they take their lunch and get paid. in the end of the week i will compare paychecks with any ups carrier and i can almost be 100% sure my check will be a lot more, i normally get off from 3-5 so its just stresfull at time but i love the pay n workout

I hate the fact that I work with four post-menopausal women who are too sensitive to temperature change. I swear, having the heater on at 75 degrees in the winter is NOT comfortable. I shouldn't be sweating in an office.

I hate working with a bunch of (older) women period.

Now, the ones around my age I don't mind one bit

1. i hate someone calls me and says how much to install "x" part.... i say "x" then they say well i can take to so and so and he will do it for this amount.... then i say then take it to them.... my price is not up to negotiation.

2. i hate when every person that comes in thinks they are going to get the good guy, or friend discount... dude i dont know you!

3.i hate when someone calls and says i got a some donkey dick huge cam i want to install... then i tune it and it makes crap power and they are all pissed off at me and say the guy i bought the cam off of said it would make "xxx", but they fail to realize they have a stock ls1 intake, crap exhaust, other crap half assed....

4. i cant stand when people buy huge by huge camshafts for cars with stock compression and intake manifolds and expect them to literally drive like stock...its impossible!!!! if a tuner tells you otherwise he is a liar or has never tuned one.

5. i hate it when people think they are my only customer and i have to put everyone elses car on the back burner for them.

i have alot more complaints but it would be a long list....
