Wrong, we checked the battery about two weeks ago, everything passed with flying colors.

I was going to go over to Paris house and remove the alternator and do a full inspection of it, bring it to autozone, and check the load cycles on it.

It's also a waste of time to bring it to your place since the Autozones around there don't have a tester.

Dude, had my interview today in Torrance - i woke up early and hit the 405 at 8:55am. My interview was at 10 so i thought i was doin' ok....WRONG...I barely made it in at 9:57am. I swear i almost got outta my car and shot 10 people on that fcukin' freeway, no joke.

Then when i actually interviewed my interviewer had no info on me so i gave him my resume and basicaly spilled everything i had - but iono what was with him...he had a pretty dry demeanor and he wasn't givin' any feedback at all. Nothin' - I gave it my best shots and was gettin' nothin' in return - i even knew certain things he was lookin' for in the position and made sure to emphasize on it and he still didn't budge. At the end he almost avoided a handshake and didn't bother walking me out. I felt like **** right after.


THEN, best part right here....I go to turn on my car.....and nothing happens. Battery's dead. Had to walk about a mile to the court house that was near me and get info on a local towing place. (no i don't have AAA) - cost $50 to get a jump and go home. Was embarassed as **** standing outside of the place w/a tow truck. I mean LITERALLY, i was parked directly in front of the door. I even saw the interviewer walk by the front, i tried to duck out so hopefully he didn't see me. But iono...i was so pissed.

Gettin' home people were ******* morons again - almost got into 4 accidents

then i get home and had to take my nephew to college - which took another half hour drive in traffic in 104 degree weather.

Coming back i realized i needed the new battery bad so i pulled off at an autozone to replace it...got a new battery, $80 down the ******* hole. While installing it i dropped my ratchet in the engine bay - couldn't ******* find it for the life of me. Had to buy a new deep socket 10mm and 3/8 drive. Then when everything got installed, i realized i was outta gas

I'm finally home now....and i wanna seriously destroy something beautiful....

Dude, it was freakin' far. Almost redondo beach and with that ignorant fcukin' traffic it would've taken you like 45 to 50 minutes to get out there. I wouldn't put anybody through that. I figured i'd just suck it up and get a freakin' jump and go home and keep searchin' for jobs...

i swear my luck is **** as of late... I can't get a fcukin' break i swear...
