Woke up with some stomach pains... I always do since I have an internal fault with intestines since day one. Already had every test you can imagine but they still can't find the cause.. oh well... I still manage. Just get's tiring after so long you know? Well, I took my medication and rested for a bit.... Left for work and dealt with co workers complaining about my absence yesterday >-> It went smoothly though despite people trying to get their cars fixed last minute (this is what I do for a living) and I have to brush them off... even if their cars are on fire
. We're just backed up which is a good thing considering dealers usually are slow but Hyundai is still kicking it! And no, it's not all warranty so that more money in my pocket.
I do have to say that one thing I dislike about my work (besides troublesome cars) is.... how people practically live in their cars... and leave all kinds of trash, smells, clothes etc inside knowing well it's coming in for repairs. Speaking of which, I had a special car show up today that smelled horrendous. Ever smelled kimchi? (forgive my spelling) Well this one smell like its been rotten for years! I took a whiff upon opening the door and hit me like a punch to the face. I literally had to open all windows with my head sticking out just to endure it.. how can people drive like this!? Anyways, after I got her fixed she then complains about a "smell" which I figured she was accustomed to since it wasn't previously mentioned. So it looks like there is a problem and it's not her hygiene. so I said "let me do a thorough inspection. on it" Gives me back the keys and I pulled her car back into the shop. I started taking things apart and finally traced it down to the a/c system and found the smell getting stronger... hmm... I then took apart the blower motor assembly and look and behold what I encountered. Now keep in mind that the inside of these motors look like hamster wheels so when it's on it's like a chopping saw. So the instant I took it apart I saw a dead rat was staring at me.
;; I knew this was going to get nasty so I had to put some gloves and mask. Of course, I only caught glimpse of the head but it got worse... the body was chopped into several pieces.
The honest truth, It looked like is has been there for days... weeks perhaps.. all I know I was the "lucky" one cleaning up this mess. Oh did I forget to mention there were some pieces hanging inside the vents? Yup, all in a day's work..
