Apr. 15th, 2012 03:08 pmFriday my mother eventually called and said that her and my father would help me pay for the repairs on my car and that I'd have to pay them back every payday. D'uh, was already planning on it. I told her that as soon as I start getting regular paychecks and set my budget, I'll see how much I can afford to pay them.
She just now called and asked what news I had about the car. I said none. This is because it's stupid to expect the repair shop to call me on the weekend when they didn't order the part (the transmission) until after noon on Friday. I don't see how they could have gotten the part yet, I'm sure it won't arrive until tomorrow, at the earliest because this isn't like mailing a letter. It takes more than a day or two to ship something like a transmission, especially if it's coming from one of the KIA plants in South Korea, although I'm fairly sure it'll be coming from Georgia.
She then asked if I had canceled the rental. Um, no, I still need a car. Unless her or my father are going to change their work schedules, something that I'm always required to do when I need them to take me to work, then I'm going to keep the fucking rental and they can just fuck off.
