This was in a scrap metal recycling page I follow.
From the comments, this isn’t uncommon. How often are caskets sent to recyclers, and why?
So since Kisi turned into exactly the thieving greedy company one can expect from acquisitions, what’s everyone shopping next?
reddit.comEvery GM 3.4 vehicle is either immaculate with cracked heads or runs like a top and is rusted in half.
This one runs great.
TLE won’t roll it into the shop.
So you can plan accordingly… This is a new one. Asked the clerk at a Walmart TLE where to drop this car for a flat repair. He told me to pick a spot I felt comfortable removing the tire. I thought he was being lazy, but nope. Turns out Walmart has a corporate written policy now that they can’t move cars with flat tires, or remove tires in the parking lot. So if you are dropping a car there with a flat tire, there needs to be a plan for what comes next. And if someone calls from a Walmart TLE and asks to have their spare put on, it’s actually a real thing. Plus, if the car doesn’t have a spare so the car can be driven in for re-install, it will be two service calls because you will need to come back to put the tire back on the car. And it’s been years since they allowed one to be put in the bay with a tow truck. Good times.
Just the usual 7am bitey face alarm clock. No snooze button either.
Cute little fella. And the kindest 2V engine compartment I have ever seen.
Can we make it a rule that question posts must include amount and business structure? It’s ridiculous every post has to start with people asking.
reddit.comThe harder it denies it, the less I believe it.
No context to the question, no preface. Straight up knew what I was asking.
Do they do it McDonalds too?
Had a girl call in about no AC. Scheduled in an inspection a couple hours later. Shows up, flat bill cap, septum piercing, tank top with no bra. Boyfriend got dressed in the same closet from the looks of things. 13 Nissan, compressor isn’t kicking in. Explain the best diag is to service the system, see what happens when it’s correctly charged. Quote her the ac service, explain if it needs more than a service, she doesn’t have to pay for the service but there will be a $125 diag fee …. Nothing. Just stares at me blankly. Clearly had no pre-conceived connection between an invoice and getting her car fixed. Never been to the shop before, not a referral from another customer. Just straight up cold call with an expectation of free repairs. It doesn’t happen every day, but it happens. We are not in any way known as the “cheap” place in town. Is it just at shops? Do they go through life at every transaction wondering why people keep asking for money?
Edit. Whoa, I keep forgetting the dress code for the 3 year career mechanics in this sub. But anyway, what’s the dress code for the moochers that show up at your shop? Because all the ones in my area definitely got the memo.
Did anyone in here lose one of these loads?
8 caught for freight thefts.
5 dogs, 2 floors, 3 metal (because we eat the plastic ones instead of the toys inside them) washtubs on each floor.
No one ever wants a toy unless either a) it’s on the bottom of the tub requiring all the toys getting dumped out or b) someone else’s fresh warm spit is on it.
Cleaned out a storage locker today.
In the gallons of costume jewelry was this ring I think is the end of a spoon. It really rings when I drop it. I will check it tomorrow.
5 dogs. 2 floors. 3 full metal (because we eat plastic tubs instead of the toys they are full of) wash tubs full of toys on each floor.

What freight companies are people using for large car parts?
I would like to list some larger items, but I don’t see how people are shipping them for the prices they are bringing. I always check sold items, and a lot of the freight items have free shipping, but they sell for less than I can find a delivery quote for.
What’s up with Speedee Delivery?
They have always been a Swiss watch in package shipping and the little bit of LTL they delivered to me. I shipped a tote outbound last week and it’s been a shit show. They just expanded, there’s a new logo on the BOL, tracker is offline. I asked if they got bought out and the manager got really sketchy and said they were transitioning to a new system.
