The car traumas continue.
Last week, on Tuesday, I proceeded to take the car in to get the air conditioning looked at AGAIN (it still isn't working). Turns out I waited too long for the day, to come in; I couldn't get anything that day. Took it in early the next day; a multiple-hour job was already in, and the earliest they could look at anything else would be late afternoon. Muttering and sputtering, I left. Calling the next day, I found out they weren't too busy; I jumped on the chance, and I was able to get it looked at around 1. I found, around 2, that a piece they had installed LAST time was missing, and that it seemed to have been blown off by a bad line, or something. They had to order the part in. Shrugging, I said that was fine, and left.
I called yesterday to inquire about the part. It was in; I could bring the car in tomorrow - that is, today - and they would try to figure out what's wrong. (They ordered two of the part just in case they blew another one off while investigating.) I got there this morning to learn that an 8:00 job had come in, and would take six hours. Shaking my head in disbelief, I agreed to call back around 1 (already in town, note) to see if there would be any time today. If not...well, let's say I will have a long day, and will have to try AGAIN tomorrow.
But yeah...this is what my afternoons will be like, basically, if I don't get a co-op. Besides doing any homework, I will be around here on afternoons in the middle of the week. :kawaii:
