hoveringsombreroFUCK!!!!
GRRRR ARRRG
to quote spanky's word of the month whatFUCKINGever!
hey guess what?
anyone remember that $1,000+ transmission problem with our 'new' car about 4 months ago eh?
that entire transmission replacing problem?
well it looks like it's happening again, spanky and i got kidnapped to san jose today for a few hours because cisco had an emergency (one of the boxes randomly shut off then went into debug, am i not supposed to tell that, don't suppose it matters) so looks like they may lose the cisco contract which won't affect kal cause it's not his account, but it's not too great for his company :/ but he got paid overtime to go there on a Saturday and reboot a box and listen to a guy bitch
anyhow on the way there stupid mister transmission started popping out of 5th again, that's how it started last time and it's acting exactly the same way, it only did it a couple times (it only did it about once a week when it first started last time) but it seemed to be to be more violent then last time when it first started, but i could be paranoid
place we took it to replaced the entire transmission and they did a good job, don't believe they're at fault, if the exact same problem is happening twice in a row with an entirely new transmission i think (as does kal) that it's something else wrong with the car possibly a factory defect
if it's a known defect that'd kick all ass cause they'd have to do something about it
what's more likely to happen is, yet again, WE'RE FUCKED, absolutely no money to fix it, it should last another month judging by last time, but we're going to see if we can trade it back in now before it gets worse, if that's at all affordable
:/ if not i guess we hope it doesn't get too much worse before we can afford to trade it in, as they're still likely to want a bit of a down.
IT WAS ALMOST PAID OFF TOO!
it's really not as stressful as everything else cause it's a pretty straightforward problem, it's just stressful because it's yet another damn thing on top of every damn thing else
anyhow it's an '89 ford escort LS (station wagon) so if anyone has any ideas or knows that there was a factory problem with that model, lemmie know
i'm gonna search myself and see what i can find
after i reboot, goddamn laptop being wiggy
