Some People Are Idiots

[DSChamber]

Man I tell ya some people are either born dumb or they develop that way..

 

As I walked towards my truck yesterday evening after work I noticed that something didn't look right... as I got closer I realized that the drivers side corner of my hood deflector was missing. The piece was laying on the pavement next to the truck.

 

I always park in the same spot and it's a parking space that is alone to itself, no cars can park on either side of me...but it is in front of a set of steps that lead to the building. We have security cameras which get recorded and I know the security guys pretty good so they let me scan through them to see if I could see who did it.... I saw at east 6 people that walked by that side of my truck basically taking a short cut (rather than walk around the back of my truck) but the recording wasn't clear enough to tell who did it for sure. What I do know is one of them did it but not one of them stopped to even look back, they just walked on by. I think I could narrow it down to one guy as it looked like he was texting on a cell phone with his head down and when he passed in front of my truck he sort of looked up but I can't be sure..

 

lucky for me it was a GM installed part so it's covered under warranty (I called and they scheduled me an appointment to get a new one installed free of charge)....

 

It just pisses me off that some people today don't give a rats ass about other people's property....

 

Ok..venting complete

I may be an idiot but I don't screw with other people's property.

its very frustrating when you value your property and other people don't give a shit....i once was parked in a parking lot, quite a ways out..and a guy pulled up in his tahoe, slammed my truck with his door(im talking slammed not tapped) i honked the horn and he just walked away like it was nothing...i don't give a shit if somebody wants to piss and shit on their brand new car then light it on fire..whatever but respect my truck and people's property

little bit of an unrelated story,

 

last weekend we were on our way home from the Holidays and we stopped at McDonalds for a quick bite to eat. There are 2 cars on the side of the lot (me and another). There are about 20 spaces. I parked at the extreme opposite of the other car. We sit down start to eat and someone parks right next to me. Out of the other 18 spots they have to pick next to me like my truck is a magnet. Not only that they park right on the white line on my pass side. Well loading a baby isnt all that easy to do when you dont have room (reason why I park away from people). So I go out there and move my truck over and take up 2 spots (they werent being used). I take the dog out and take him for a short pee brake, the lady sitting in the car gives me a dirty look like why did you do that, well maybe I did it because I couldnt open the door to let anyone in??? My wife proceeds to come out and load our son, I still think the lady was oblivious to why I moved over.

Warranty on the hood deflector?

[AzDragonLord]

I hate people.

Warranty on the hood deflector?

 

 

Yup... any GM installed part like hood deflectors,vent visors, etc etc carry a 1 year warranty against defects. As far as the dealership knows it broke due to a manufacturers defect, they never asked any questions...I do feel a bit bad by not telling the full truth and that in part makes me more pissed off at the idiot that broke it, GM shouldn't pay for the deflector, he should...

 

I dunno... its a screwed up world we live in... sometimes people "dent and drive away" because they don't want to be taken to the cleaners by someone that will take advantage of the situation ... I have seen some pretty shady stuff when it comes to insurance....

 

On a brighter note I got my two front windows tinted today, lol, but I might have to go back and get the passenger side redone because there is two bubbles in the tint and an ugly "tint worm".. the called the tinter guy and he said to leave it for 24 hours and if the bubbles are still there to come back and he would do it over if I wasn't happy with it...

I hear ya man.... these people totally piss me off, years ago I bought a 2nd hand 93' Cavalier, in the glove box there was a stack of what looked like parking tickets, when I took a look at them I saw that it was a "gag ticket" and on it it read "Hey a$$hole, next time leave me a f&cking can opener so I can get into my car" (minus the $$ and&, full profanity was on the tickets ) ... I thought those were perfect, lol, and by the time I sold the car I never had any left...lol. Wish I had kept a few

Need to change "some people are idiots" to "most people are idiots." I would have to agree, most people have no respect anymore. Very frustrating when you spend so much time and money trying to keep something nice just to have some sh*tbag walk by and tear it up. I feel your pain!
