Person parking next to me

Parking Lot

My wife and I went out to dinner last night and we parked in a parking lot next to the restaurant. The parking lot was 75% empty when we arrived and 75% empty when we left. I parked far out to stay away from everyone and low and behold when I came out there was a huge suv parked so close to my car that I almost had to climb in on the passenger side to get in my car. Is this really necessary? I don’t understand why people have to do that. What do you think?

It’s doing the same thing again

Let me setup the situation. A customer comes in about a week ago and his computer system is dead. We check in his system and we put in for the notes that the system is dead and that it may have been caused by a faulty fan in the laptop which made the system overheat. We repair the system, replace the fans and the customer picks up the system. The customer calls a week later and says that his system is doing the same thing. I ask him what the same thing is and he says that the internet doesn’t work. I look up his notes to see what was done and I see that we replaced fans and the system is repaired. We didn’t do any service work on his notebook for the internet. I explain this to the gentlemen and he says no, no it came in for the internet. I decided it was in my best interest to just let it go and requested that he bring in the computer so that we could plug it in to our network and see if it would get on the internet. He said great I will be in tomorrow. Well tomorrow rolls around and he never calls or shows up. He probably was able to get on the internet after all. People never cease to amaze me. What do you think?

PS: It is kind of like changing the oil in a car and the customer calls up and asks why their brakes don’t work. And, they swear that you should have worked on their brakes for the $19.99 oil change price that they paid.

Bicycle crosses road at night

I was on the way home last night and the road that I use is dark, and there is no street lights. The time is 8:00 so it is really dark by then. There are oncoming headlights which makes visibility even more difficult and out of no-where there is a bicyclist that is crossing the road, not in a crosswalk. The person has no reflectors, and no lights or anything else that would identify him at night. I swerved to miss the person and managed to avoid him. I am a bicyclist and I understand the problems associated with bicycling. There is no bicycle lanes where this person was cycling. There wasn’t even much of a shoulder on the side of the road. The problem I have is that the guy wasn’t visible hardly at all and he crossed right in front of me at the last second. What do you think?
