"Oooh, on the TLC tip"

There was a car across the street at Westchester Golf Course whose car kept honking. At first I was pissed because it sounded like someone honking for someone to come outside. But it kept going and going and I thought about getting a baseball bat and walking out there and smashing whoever's car it is. But Jeanne looked outside and saw that there was a guy with his hood up and that's his car. It won't stop honking. Okay. But the thing is that I think it was his car alarm that malfunctioned and car alarms are so fucking futile that I still hate him for that. But the good thing about it is it was at a golf course, right by the driving range. I have this thing that when I drive by golf courses, if someone's about to tee off, I honk to throw them off. So all these guys at the driving range have this continual honking in the background. It was nice.

It made me remember that time Drew and I were in Lawrence, KS. We were wallking around Massachusettes Ave and heard this long continual honking. Like someone had his hand on the horn and was driving through the street. We thought it was some kids trying to be funny. It kept going and going and getting closer and closer. When the vehicle drove by us, there was a guy in the truck hitting his steering wheel. The horn wouldn't stop and he kept hitting it trying to turn it off.

Here's one of the last phone conversations from Saturday night as I was getting ready to leave work:

"I need a car tonight."

"I'm sorry we're all booked up. There's some high school dances going on tonight so everything's booked."

"I just need a town car."

"We don't have any town cars available."

"Do you know any other companies that you can suggest?"

"All of our affiliate companies are booked as well."

"You know this for a fact?"

"Yes!"

"Give me one of their numbers. I'm going to call them."

"I'm not giving you their names or numbers."

"Why not?"

"Because. We don't have to tell you who we work with or give you the names of our competitors. There are hundred of companies in Los Angeles. You'll be able to find one, but I'm not going to find one for you."

Very angry and sarcastically, "Thanks a lot. You have great customer service skills."

"Thank you. I take pride in that. Have a great night sir."

Another one I had from Thursday:

"I called a little while ago and got a quote and I'd like to book it."

I quoted this guy so I start taking his reservation. "What time is your pick up?"


"4Am."

"All right, at that time the rate is different. It's going to be $20 more."

"Why is that?"

"That's our rate at that time."

"Why does it matter?"

"Because we don't have drivers on shifts. They're all on call 24 hours a day. No one will do it for less than that price."

"Okay. You just lost a customer."

"You were never our customer. Thank you. Have a nice day."
