Pro 4313 McKinney, TX | Subject: RE: TAN #198: Oh What a TANgled Web We Weave. As I was pulling out last night to get dinner, I saw a solicitor in the 'hood and sent the wife a text letting her know to not worry about answering the door. I go and get the food and come back. Wife says the guy knocked. So...about 15 minutes later, while eating.....*knock* *knock* *knock*. It's him again. Didn't answer. About 30 mintues later.....*knock* *knock* *knock*. Seriously dude...... So, I call the cops. I attend meetings with, and regularly chat with, the deputy cheif of the McKinney PD. He said anytime there are door-to-door people, call the non-emergency line and they'd come and make contact, ask for their permit - as requried by city law, etc. So...I did. I then set out for my 3 mile run. I run the neighborhood loop 3 times and the sales guy is still in the area. Then, I see the police. Cop was making a U-turn and I stopped him and told him what's up. He said he saw him and was going to make contact. At that point, I had run for 10 minutes (and had 20 more minutes to go). I continue to run my out-and-back route and as I turn back into the 'hood, the cop is still there talking with the guy, the guys trunk is open, there is another cop there, and it's been 20 minutes......this had turned into more than a "let me see your permit" and "you can't be here, now leave" situation. I was feeling bad after calling the cops because it was a guy trying to make a living......but apparently there was more to the story so I didn't feel too bad. |

Champion 17756 SoCal | Subject: RE: TAN #198: Oh What a TANgled Web We Weave. God damn I hate some people. Some old bitchy man called in asking why he can’t see a web page info for diagnosing and electronic throttle body for and ‘03 Santa Fe with codes. I tell him we have two TSBs (Technical Service Bulletin) just for the codes and to follow them. He gets mad and says he doesn’t want me to tell him how to fix it but wants me to tell him why he can’t view the technical info for the ’03. I know for a fact if you follow the TSB he will fix the car and make money but he apparently doesn’t care about that just about understanding the system. So as I am researching the web page for his and right when I find that the ’04 info is the same as ’03 and that’s exactly the same and he can get his info he hangs up on me saying “I’ll just do it myself”. Just so you guys know mechanics are basically contractors. They get paid a set amount of money for a job. So if they do the job under time or over time they get the same amount. So if you are a good tech you learn to fix the concern quickly and get onto the next job so you get paid more. Some people get stuck on stupid and take way too long to fix things and they in the end lose money and are the ones that complain how they don’t get paid enough. /rant |
