    Attention is good sometimes....

    So this week has been pretty sweet so far. I've washed my car twice this week due to rain and driving back and forth over the pass. Thursday I was handwashing my car again at a local car wash. One of the wash attendants came over and complimented me on my car. We started talking about this and that. After about 10-15min of chatting, he gave me an employee code for free spray time at the car wash

    Then, this morning, I took my car to get an oil change. Again, a guy working there compliments me on the ride. We chat it up for a while. He says if I bring him cash, I can get oil changes whenever I want for $20 flat Synthetic's included

    It's been a fun week so far.

    I can't leave this one...

    So, a guy that does not own the car wash gave you a code to get free stuff?

    And another guy offers to go around the receipt, taxes, inventory, etc at another place?

    If I was their boss, the first guy would at least get fired, and it looks to me like the second guy is stealing, avoiding taxes, and I don't know what else.....

    Or am I missing something?

    If I'm going to do that it better be big. I wish I had a homey in a bank somewhere that would leave the vault open and the alarm off....

    Homie hookups are the shiznit! I used to get free papa murphys, movies, wendys, car washes back in the day. My local taco bell and mickey d's always hooks up free drinks. Customer retention in my eyes.

    even a oil change shop pays more than $20 for the filter/oil and labor on mobil one.
    thats why they charge $100 to do it. MAN that kid is going to so get fired and you are going to get caught up in the **** also-they have cams all over those place's!!!!

    Think about how stupid the average person is..
    Then realize half of them are dumber than that
