Move to CT brother. Lots of IT jobs listed where I work. Way cheaper than living in California. I’d wash your car anytime.

Just finished a customer’s car. 2015 Mustang. It was the 50th anniversary or something like that. But man, it was like Amazon Car Parts store galore. There was an ridiculous amount of carbon fiber trim pieces. Like even the carbon fiber had carbon fiber. Smoked headlights and stop lights. Guy was really nice and paid me extra because it is absolutely humid outside. Other than that, I don’t think I’ve ever seen so much carbon fiber trim pieces in my life inside/outside a car.

He was very pleased and is going to spread the word and bring his Porsche next week.

Today it was a little kid who threw his hot wheel car at Haru after I already told his siblings twice that Haru was too tired to be pet and they ignored me. Their parents were 50ft+ away at a picnic table not even watching, had no idea until I told them as I walked by to leave.

it's real easy. you care too much. just give haru a matchbox car, you sit down, relax for a litle while, and tell him to go play nice with that other guys kid over there...

then that guy comes by later and complains about your dog throwing matchbox cars at his kid...

It's been my experience that you shouldn't try to control other people's kids when their parents are around. I suggest you mention to the parents that Hara get bit by a rat and just got a rabies shot.

Meanwhile, prepare Hara for combat -

i've learned a long time ago, no one hangs out with crazy. be the craziest one at the park, others leave real quick!

just show those kids pooping in a bag, lighting it on fire, and leaving it on door steps. in a week, the parents won't bring their kids anywhere near you!

it's also how my truck got an air horn...

I love air horns but not enough to go to the trouble. Big ol' Hadley sitting on the shelf just waiting for the rest of the things to happen.
