So, its winter and there is some buildup of sand and such on my car, so i go to teh dollar wash in ST.albert by the gold dust casino. Parking lot is icy because well the humidity and such. So i pull in, and then as im turning into the bay it fishtails a little bit. I get outta my car and this guy who works there comes up, grabs me by the arm and slams me up againts my car and is like "You ever f@cking do that again Ill bounce your head off of this sidewalk" So, being the person i am AKA not taking shit, say "Do what?!" he says "Fuckin spin your tires and get me all wet." so i say "Sorry I got you wet but i guess you shouldnt stand there :P " and so he goes away. So la de da, wash my car, go into the main room or whatever and ask that guy to speak to the manager.

He goes "I am hte manager" and im like "you got a bad attitude, better watch your mouth or im not coming back here" So he goes "I dont want customers liek you"

I think to myself like me? what....kids?....people with nice cars?....males???!?!

So then he says "I dont care if you ever come back, because all youll do is spin your tires"
So whatever get in my car to leave, he opens the garage door I roll down my window and say "Im telling everyone I know how you treated me."
And he says "I dont care, I dont want YOUR KIND here"
Again....waht is "my kind"
So, pissed off, i rev to 3500 start spinning the tires get out, do a 360 in the parking lot, all while he is watching me, flip him the bird, and be on my merry little way. :D f@cker.

Ayu
ignorant people cannot handle problems on their own, so they have to get someone else involved. I hate people like that.

K no I didn't drive by, i was pulling into the stall INSIDE! And its not like i meant to spray him, he just got all in my face for no reason.

Also, Ayu I hope you dont think that about me becaue im not trying to get people involved, jsut stating what happened, and to avoid it because the guy is an asshole.

also that owner guy did say...... " i don't want ppl like u!"
so he's not referring to just him........

:angry: He grabbed your arm! :angry:

:angry: I would of smoked him!!! and hard!!!! :angry:

or else charge him! he physically grabbed you and thats enough for an assult charge!

I would go back with police and charge him! he had no right touching you, its too bad his establishment wasnet properly setup for the kind of traction you need in a carwash to avoid spinning out. Imagine if you spun out and hit him!

Charge to senial bastard! :angry:

f@ck that f@cker i would of kicked him right in the balls if he grabbed me then spit on his face.

mr2_import

Exactly! Why did you let him get away with that? People like that only learn one way.

perhaps physical confrontation is not always the solution to every problem?

Actually, that was meant towards the person that you unintentionally soiled with snow. I did not mean to slander you in any way.

I cannot stand people like that. People should learn to control their emotions esp. in a public environment.

The guy is the manager of dollar car wash, you gotta understand that hes gonna have some pent up anger in him.

redbaron303
Ya, bad service... went there once and didn't go back....

ChromeDragon
Well am I the only one to have a voice of reason here?

You're in a car wash, the bays are always going to be wet, why not drive for the conditions. The car wash is obviously heated, it wouldn't be icy inside. If you're driving fast enough inside the car wash to slide the rear end of your car I would be pissed off myself. Granted he was out of line grabbing you like that, but you've gotta take a look from his side and realize what you were doing endangers others.

That wash isn't that large inside... it's not like you could drift in there safely...

no reason to take out the anger out on customers and ESPECIALLY when you're a manager!

customer service sucks. period.

i worked at laser quest for almost 2 years, damn, people get so stupid at that place. you give them a bunch of gun imitation toys in a blacklit room and they all of a sudden get stupid.

i had so many ppl mouth me off, but that doesn't give me a right to get mad right back at the customer. if i did, i woulda taken this trailor trash lady by the arm and slam her into a garbage can for treating me like dirt and talking to me like i was retarded/didn't know english.

when you work customer service, you gotta tolerate everything.

One thing that we must remember though is that we only have one "side" of the story. For all we know it was John who grabbed the managers arm after the manager confronted him(I'm not saying you did, but in matters such as these we have to always consider that there is more than one side).

You were driving like an asshole at his business, and covered him in dirt!!! I would have called the police on you - its called dangerous driving! Dont be so rude and have a little consideration for others. Do you also drive through puddles and splush people, then say its their fault for walking on the sidewalk?

TheNeonEdge
K first of all, I did not "DRIFT" into the place, i was stopped outside waitign for the garage to open....

they sweep the water outside to keep if from gettign icy all over th efloor inside, so the entrance is icy and slippery.

The door opens and I go in (this is where my tires spun) no big deal, it happens no matter what in hte winter. he directed me to hte bay directyl to the right of th edoor, so on ice, i had to make a sharp turn, and when touching hte gas the ass end slid.

Heres some specs for you 1981 turbo trans am 340Ft/lbs torque at 3500RPM Idle is about 1200. step on hte gas a bit so liek 2000 rpm, thats still around 180 ft/lbs, with about 50 pounds on top of it for traction while turning. You do the math.

And for anyone that knows me, knows that I would not just go up to someone and grab their arm for some stupid reason, especially some 40yr old guy.

I know this is just one side, But im trying to give you all the details about how much of an over reaction this was for him, He coulda just said "try not to do that please" and instead slams me to my car and says hes gonna beat me up? And im pretty sure I didnt even spray him like i said and If i did, its not liek im trying too..

dangers of working at a car wash i spose....
