Heads? They will be a -rollin'

Oh. My. Hell.

My kids are both asleep at the same time. Right this moment. Zonked out GOOD.

I? No chance of sleep despite the fact that it's a fabulous time to do so. Or lay down and journal. Or sit on the porch w/o fear of my kids locking me out. Or figure out what the fuck we're going to do tomorrow.

No no. Right now? I'm REALLY fucking mad.

I know. You sense this new trend of mine? Anger? I'm getting fabulous at it.

And I swear to you the people at the dealership are about to get a giant dose of foot up ass.

The deal on this car fell through. First it was we don't make enough show us your overtime. Then it was not enough down payment. But wait! I'm going to make this work! hey hey! $4000 rebate! I'll get my manager to approve it and you'll get a brand new car! Call you tomorrow and we'll get this rolling.

Then I find out the finance guy we were working with? Not working again until Saturday. And the dude who IS working? So unmotivated to give a shit. It's been a fight to get answers.

Last night he called (after, no exaggeration, 7 attempts to reach him including 5 times being hung up on) and said he'd have the whole deal fixed, finished, and ready to go by noon today. 1 at the latest.

So at 230 Josh calls since, obviously, dumbass hasn't called.

I KNOW car sales is a LOT of shady bullshit and smoke and mirrors and stress and crap.

However THIS much? Is totally uncalled for and disrespectful.

Dude tells me that deal is NOT finalized because original finance guy has to finalize it. But hey! They got us into an 08 with a $1500 rebate applied to our down payment! And um, shhhhyourpaymentsare100moreamonth. Oh no. He didn't OFFER that info up to Josh...it had to be forced out.

Somehow my husband didn't commit murder and calmly said that wasn't our deal. It was $4000 off. I don't CARE how great of other deals we are getting in regards to our trade in. I don't CARE if you don't like that it is the deal we were told by Bob and it is the deal we will be taking and we already agreed to a payment almost $40 over what we wanted to pay in the beginning so if you think we're agreeing to another $100 a month for a car which is NOT worth that much? You can go fuck yourself.

So now he'll go talk to manager man and maybe get back to us tonight.

Oh. He'll get back to us tonight.

When I walk in with two kids and a husband and a very very very pissed off look on my face. They'll be getting back to me alright. If this deal isn't finalized today it will not be finalized until Monday at the soonest and quite frankly? This bullshit is unacceptable and whether we end up with a car from these assholes or not? I will be complaining all over the place about the drama involved. It should NOT be this dramatic and basic respect should be followed and straight forwardness and returning phone calls and not hiding shit.

Oh I HATE this. And the worst part is I'm not up to having it out big time right now with them over the phone this shit needs to be done in person where they can try to treat me like shit to my face. And I can use my death glare. It's pretty good at getting results. It will be very useful when I bypass all others and talk to the manager himself.

BTW....if they aren't careful? I'm so sic'ing this on them and if y'all think I'm frightening? Just wait until Gangsta Ninja Lil the Kill(a) gets ahold of them.



Oh yes. Heads? Will roll.
