The boss asked him to heat up the tyre lube pot as it was all mangy so he decided to run an extension cable 15ft across the MOT bay when he could have ust picked the tub of lube up and moved it next to a plug socket.
i was in stitches when i read that!! what a tool!

Some knob i work with did this to a girls 206 the other day! She stood there and watched him with a breaker bar, and after he smashed the first one off she said to him "didn't you know they were hub caps?" (he tells everyone how great he is at cars etc). After i laughed at him, it later turned out he decided to clean her brakes with WD40 as they were squealing!

And my WTF moment this week is a tie between my rear break pads flying out of my temp Clio as i was going down the M1 (i had only picked the car up that day) and watching a woman in a Saab on her phone almost plow down a mother and child who were walking on the path whilst an Ambulance came the other way! She literally just missed the woman and child, yet still wound down her window to shout at the Ambulance whilst still holding the phone to her face!

Was in a meeting in the office yesterday morning and at 1 point the operations manager went on a rant about folk being unprofessional at which point the director picked up his scarf wrapped it round his head and whilst doing a dance said 'I take your point sir' in an Asian accent.
I nearly pissed myself laughing, no one else seemed to find it that funny

unfortunately he was doing it as a favour to this girl, not atually as a job itself! I sorted her brakes afterwards and told her to avoid him after that! The trouble is he thinks hes the best just because he passed his apprenticeship (well, i say passed, it took him 5 years to complete a 3 year apprenticeship in which the tutor did most the work).
