well they will once the office guy decides to learn how to write an estimate. Him and the sarge are close behind the exit list.

I got to spend all day body working a lexus, that should have been written for repairs a total of 35 hours or so for body work..................It paid 12, and he thinks its good, and is still confused on why im upset. So I compared a hack shop estimate that was in the lexus, and sure as ****, office guy only put removal/install times, and figured the 15 foot long scrape/dent down the side could be fixed for free.. going to talk with boss tomorrow, if he doesnt agree to turn some numbers around, or call the customers and say "hey we screwed up, price has to increase slightly" ill tell him im looking for another job. Im so ****ing done

Man what a week so far. It has Ben running 10 degrees above normal for temps. We ate breakfast with Mickey and friends yesterday morning and then we did rope drop at the Magic kingdom. We rode some rides and then came back for a nap. I have to say I needed one too. Went back to the park and did the nacho challenge, rode space mountain and other rides. Going back for our second magic kingdom day today.

Little man is being so good and having the time of his life. Doing real good despite the heat. He loves the rides and shows. Still not real fond of the characters but he will give them a high 5 but doesn't want them to touch him.

Everyone seems to be having a good time, would be better if it was not so hot. I know next trip will be in October or November when we come.
