You mean FTOs shouldn't come with factory squeaks and rattles?
Drivers who pull out in front of you in the fast lane and then proceed to go slow.

Well why don't you fix it Andrew? Put coilovers on max soft and get some larger profile tyres.

Also I have noticed I drive like a dickhead, so I decided to slow down and save some fuel, but then every other c**t drives like a dickhead and tailgates me.
Maybe I should spray paint all my mirrors black lol.

And that you can run 20mm hubcentric spacers to get them off the gaurds, so much so you can run a 245 on an 18...
Wait... I've read that information somewhere before...

What size profile are you running?
And do you have the longer lug nuts, or is a 20mm spacer safe?

I work with people who are incompetent, lazy and slow. I'm not the perfect employee, but I try pretty hard to get the job done. I don't mind my coworkers personally, and I'm usually too much of a pussy to take them up on work ethic, but I'm thinking it's getting time to man up a bit.
If you don't hear from me for a few months, it's because they shot the messenger.
That being said, knowing the boss has been checking up on them via the cameras and has witnessed their sh*t time management, or checking phones for extended periods of time while "working" should be a suitable boot up the arse.
TL;DR don't work in retail. Or at least at my store.

Hence why I became a manager, and then gave the big fat middle finger to the man when they denied our bonus.
Guess who came crawling back to employee me when sh*t hit the fans later...
tl:dr... man up!

I once said I'd never go fulltime, and then I did. But I will shoot myself if I become a manager. I'm already beginning to have responsibility over my fellow employees foisted upon me, even though I don't rank any higher than any of them. IMO being accountable for
other peoples work is dumb.
