Didn't mean to delete the entire Honda thread. AGN - you need to relax a little. I know you can get a little "punch drunk" from all of the accusatory posts but I honestly don't think exp's intention was to insult you.
On that note - everybody have a great weekend. I've got my office window open enjoying this beautiful spring day. Supposed to get up to 81 here today.
I guess the "hacker" "lowballer" issue is just one that stirs alot of passions in the people of this industry.
I imagine this is what it was like before the Americans decided the declare war on the British for their independence. Lots of infighting and mudslinging.
I just felt that aside from the "you cut the wrong corner to make a buck" comment, the rest of what exp contributed seemed to be a sincere effort to help. And to me that seemed like more of an off the cuff comment rather than an attempt to insult you but, I could be wrong. I only meant to remove the last couple of posts because it looked like it was just going to turn into an unproductive, back-and-forth insult hurling fest. As Barney Fife would've said - "you have to nip it in the bud."
This reminds me a lot of when I used to have to cut people off when I was bartending. No matter how tactfully you try to do it, someone is going to get their feathers ruffled.
Have you guys seen that video of the off duty cop beating up that female bartender because she cut him off? The most shocking part to me was how all the people in the bar just stood there and watched. What a bunch of jerks. If I was her, I would've grabbed a bottle and split his skull open.
Bryan....I noticed that too, a bunch of men standing there watching a little chick get beat up. Instead of helping, they stand there on their cell phones. That's what we do nowadays, don't help, just make a call.
