Sorry to hear man. Hope u find something that works out. It's hard now a days

[MandyZ]

I shouldn't have to deal with this fucking bullshit.

Amen. Had the same thought last Friday. Best of luck finding a job you enjoy.

Too all the people "about" to shop for a job...let me save you the time. If you're not taking action now you're not motivated enough or don't care enough to follow through. Not trying to COMPLETELY piss you guys off...but the only way to get ahead in life is to go at a faster pace than the crowd. Taking no action produces no results...now y'all can start with the excuses....It's the holidays, the economy is bad, I need to fix my resume...lets hear them!

To anyone seriously looking...good luck. Hopefully you will be the man someday.

Yes on the '86. It's kind of a long story, but basically what it comes down to, is me driving down 75 merging onto George Bush and the steering felt REALLY weird. As I went along further, I started to get a rattle in the steering and very faint sound. I pulled over and looked at everything under the hood because I had it aligned at work last night. Pulled back onto Bush and it progressively got louder and as I took the overpass to get onto the Tollway it got scary loud. I took the first exit and pulled into the parking lot. Get out to find 3 of the 4 lug nuts on the right front wheel GONE !

When we swapped the wheels the other night I think my buddy stripped the studs on that wheel by using the impact. Fuck. My. Life.

Sucks to hear about those wheel nuts and studs.

If you are interested I have a full set of 3 inch studs front and back and a full set of open ended weld racing shank nuts. New in box.

But hey, alteast your wheel didn't fall off!

In the automotive field, you're better off not trying to even worry about it until after the holidays, since there is an unwritten rule that they dont hire right before or during.

No dude, the most motivated person doesn't always land the best job or gets ahead faster in life. Unfortunately, we live in a world of who knows who and who has the best network of friends and collegues. I'll agree that good things don't come to people who wait for it, but to those who work for it.

References contacted, open positions researched, resume sent out, network notified. The active hunt is on. As for being "the man someday." No thanks. lol

Ya know, I was laughing to myself, thinking of that when I cooled down and everything was cool. Funny, huh ?

I don't know that I'll even look for something in the automotive field. Maybe I should look for something in the artistic field. That's the shit I enjoy.

dont let mike put your wheels on again lol

Dammit, THAT'S what happened ! Mike was fucking with my wheels at Sonic when I wasn't looking !! That's my story and I'm sticking to it !

Damn... and on top of all of this, I'm sure someone's going to ask if Chuck is there.

I changed it just for you, Dennis.

NoWheelMike loosened Yo shits at the GTG?

Aaron, is this on the draglites?

Yeah. I ended up not using the 2 packs of open ended lug nuts you gave me because I didn't have enough time to put the 3" studs in the rear, so I just bought 3 new packs of lug nuts from Lonestar in Addison and used the one pack of lug nuts and washers you gave me that were the long shank, close ended ones.

And now that I think about it, I'm damn near positive it had to have been when the lug nuts got hit with the impact.

I checked all of the other wheels, and they are all tight as hell except for the one wheel that we were fucking with and ended up changing the washers on because they were too big and were hitting the center caps.

I mean, if it was, in fact, the reason, I know he didn't do it on purpose. Regardless, it still sucks. I'm not blaming it on him, I just think that's what happened.

Oh yeah, for those that weren't at the Carrollton GTG Thursday night, here's a shitty cell phone picture of it.

I'm going to get new center caps and paint/powdercoat them black. Anyone have any idea how powdercoating would hold up on lug nuts......provided they actually stay on this time ? LMAO !!
