Default man I had the day from hell...

I am doing suspension work on a new RL, got it lifted etc. I have to lower it, and didn't realize the guy I am apprenticing had pushed his cart a bit under my car...well I didn't properly check to see if the area was clear before coming down and totally landed the rear bumper right onto the edge of his Snap-On cart. Snap-On cart was fine, but I fucked the bumper.....Guess who gets to pay for a new RL bumper....

The other techs patted me on the back and congratulated me on "popping my cherry" and told me to learn from the experience. I guess Matt backed a brand new RL into a cement pole 6 months ago about 15 minutes before it's new owner was to take delivery...so I don't feel asssss bad h:

subaru wiring is done, it cranks, starts, dies....I am in the process of doing some trouble shooting. Since I started working I just haven't had the time/want to work on it. Wrench on other peoples shit for 8 hours a day the last thing I wanna do is come home and deal with more shit lol. I worked on it for a couple hours yesterday cause I had a halfish day, hopefully work on it this weekend and get it all figured out.
