Alright, so my car has been in the shop for over a week now. It was supposed to be done on Friday.
We called Friday and asked if it was ready to be picked up...and they told us the parts weren't even in yet. But he said that they covered $400 of my deductible with aftermarket parts, so I was like, yay! I only have to pay $100 now!
But I was kind of pissed, like "so my cars just been sitting in a lot for a whole week!?"
But I figured it wasn't that big a deal, since y'know I have no job anyway at the moment ._.; not like I have anywhere to go. And besides, cheeeap deductible!
So they said it would be done on Monday.
Well, it's Monday. I called and asked if my car was ready to be picked up. The guy said the paint was drying and it wouldn't be ready until tomorrow morning at 9am.
So I was like...ok. Fine. 9am sounds cool.
Like, I really don't care how long it takes them. It doesn't matter because I don't have a job. Classes don't start until the end of the month. And I'm dying of boredom with or without that yellow banana sitting in my driveway.
Well, my dad got REALLY pissed when he heard. He's really really really strict, and he has this huge standard that every buisness he encounters has to live up to LIKE NO MATTER WHAT, because he's stubborn and demands high-quality service from EVERYONE and their mother. Yea, y'know my stubbornness? His is like, fifty times that. I'm just the spawn.
So he calls the shop back after I've already talked to them and OK-ed it and pretty much verbally hulk-smashes the guy on the other line, saying how they lied about when the car would be done and "we're not paying extra insurance for nothing", and such. He apparently also insulted the man's mother.
Well, I didn't hear any of this. BECAUSE THE GUY FROM THE SHOP CALLED ME BACK A FEW MINUTES LATER AND EXPLAINED WHAT MY DAD DID, AND SAID THAT HE WAS NOW NOT GOING TO USE THE OTHER AFTERMARKET PARTS TO COVER MY DEDUCTIBLE ANYMORE!
And I'm like "wait, wait WAIIIT OH s***!"
And he's like "no. Deal off."
And I'm like "please! My dad's just a jerk, hes the only one who cares if the car is finished on time! AND I'M THE ONE PAYING THE DEDUCTIBLE!"
And he's like "too bad. He insulted my mom. No aftermarket parts 4 u." -CLICK-
And I'm like, "FUUUUUUCK! NOOOO! I DON'T HAVE $500!"
So I called my dad back and was like "DUDE WHAT DID YOU DO? HE SAID YOU INSULTED HIS MOTHER? AND MY AFTERMARKET PARTS WENT BYEBYE!"
And my dad's like "lol nub let me handle it. I called insurance company and they're dealing with him right now. And how could they NOT have put the aftermarket parts on when the paint is already drying?"
And since I know jack s*** about cars, I'm like "FINE WHATEVER."
I give up.
But if I have to pay that whole deductible. I'm so f**ked.
I'll have no money for next semester's classes.
And my credit card will be MAXED. My limit is only like 1.5 grand. Stupid f**king student Visa.
UGH. WHY ME?
