I am impressed… really… I was having dinner with M.J last night and there is this customer that call me asking me what to do because his car is over heating. I told him that he should switch off the engine and tow the vehicle back to the workshop… he told me ok, And I give him the breakdown assistance number.
Then he call again and ask me can he drive the car back to the workshop because he do not wish to have the car tow (I guess he don't want to pay for the towing fee which is $90) and he asked me to help him to get the car repair ASAP because he need the car 1st thing in the morning … I told him I will do what I can to help him and that he can try to drive to the workshop slowly and pass the keys to the security guard but he must off the engine should the temperature goes up…
This morning I was hunting high and low like a stupid a$$ for that car but I give up after 15 min of searching. I later found out that this monkey drove the car home last night and not to the workshop as agreed…
Well, ask me if I give a shit about it since it’s not my car we are talking about here…
So I just carry on with my life…
At 11.45 hrs I got a call from that monkey telling me that he is at the our new office few block away… I got there around 12.00pm because I am setting up the charger for the battery of a showroom car… and why the battery is dead? well some1 is not doing thier job by starting all the showroom and test drive cars daily...
Upon a quick check it was found out that the fuse box has damage or I should say it is melted and has to be replaced. Our dear friend here start making noise the parts is expensive lah…the car is just 3 year old lah… his business is suffering lah… on and on and on… I told him that I sorry to learn that life is so unkind to him but I knock off today at 12.30hrs…
Then he asked me that can he just replace just only the fuse. I got fed up so I told him that it’s his car and he can choose not to replace anything at all, but if the car over heated or catch fire… I got nothing to do with it…
At last after ting ting tong tong here and there I replace the fuse box for him and he left after paying up and that is about 1 pm in the noon… bloodily monkey make me stay back for half and hour and I cannot claim overtime for that…

Later in the noon I went J.T’s old man’s place to remove the radio set from his old man’s cab, as the cab due to scrap tomorrow … at 1st I thought it’s is going to be a tough job… end up… it’s was like a walk in the park… At dinner J.T and I was talking about being our own bosses, but sadly we come to a conclusion that it is still not a good time to make any moves yet as times is really bad … guess I still have to stick to the paycheck thing for a while longer…
