When’s the last time you got the last laugh?

Question

So we had another appointment with the pretty eyed salesman yesterday. He was soooo sure she was about to buy. And he was almost right. But then he got cocky and kept singing “shes about to buy” 🎶 Then he brought out the price tag. Mind you he said he would DROP the price. This idiot instead added on some unnecessary $2000 package shit and with the title, doc fee, and taxes included, it definitely went up. Thing is, she at least expected those things, but not the package. She told him she can’t even look at him anymore and walked out.

His attitude changed and he started talking smart. He and his coworker even insulted my mothers name a bit by asking my grandma why she named her that. This is where he made things worse since the last dealership turned her off when the guy didn’t get her name right. Anyways, I told ole boy to his face “I TOLD YOU SO.”

Today he’s calling me while I’m at work, nearly crying, asking “where did i lose your mom?” I said “dude you went over $5-6k. She told you to at least drop the $2k package and she’d buy.” But It was clear his manager insisted he sell that too. And because he wouldn’t remove it, she wouldn’t buy. The manager negotiated taking $600 off lmao. I told him unless its $2k, she won’t be back lol. Now ole angel eyes is scrambling asking me for sales tips and trying to find other cars to sell to her. My lips are trembling as I’m trying not to laugh in his face during these calls. But his hotness is keeping me sane… #FeelFreeToList

Good for you and your mom!
I know a lot about cars, thanks to my dad, as I not only built a Jeep when I was 14, I built MY first Jeep when I was 15, I also built the engine that went into it! So when I was buying my newest Red Jeep, and the salesman began to BS me about what certain features did and did not do, I knew he was lying to me! I just asked for the sales manager, told him about all the lying, (with specific examples), that I knew what I was talking about, and I asked for a new sales person who would not “piss on my leg and tell me it’s raining”!

Then, after I finally found a Jeep l really liked and the price had been negotiated, they kept bringing out these "add-ons"! One was $600 for “dealer prep” I told them there was NO WAY in hell, I was ever paying $600 to have this Jeep washed every day, just to make me want to buy it more! And that they should cancel the paperwork on this Jeep, and go find a fckn’ dirty one for me, because I’m NOT paying them to wash the Jeep FFS! I told them, “They wash the produce at Publix, but they don’t fckn’ charge me to reimburse them for washing the fruit and vegetables to make them look more appealing! I’m not paying the $600. period!”. They had already taken off about $2k dollars worth of add-ons above the negotiated price, so this last $600 would actually get it down to exactly what we negotiated!

The sales manager asked me “Are you really willing to walk away from such a beautiful Jeep, over $600, condescendingly? (I swear I was waiting for him to say little girl at the end!) I turned it around and told them I already have a beautiful Jeep! In fact, I have two. So you need to ask YOURSELF, are YOU really willing to lose a sale over $600, especially when you can just add it to whatever you sell my 2yr old Jeep trade-in for, and pass it to someone who does NOT know the leverage they have over you when interest rates are this fckn’ high, and it’s making luxury toys like Jeeps unaffordable! I’m not paying ONE CENT over the price we negotiated in good faith, and if the next number you give me is NOT exactly what we negotiated, I’m leaving, and going down the road, and I’ll buy a fckn' G-Wagon instead! It’s not about the money, it’s about the principle! You guys gave me a price, and THAT is what I’m willing to pay!

They sold me the Jeep for exactly what we negotiated. They also weirdly offered me a sales job. (Swear to god that’s true!)

I hope you and your mom have better luck at another dealership. But I would NEVER trust that one again! (Also, write to the owner, and tell them about your experience! You’d be surprised at what they might offer you, including selling you a car at dead cost, JUST to get you as a customer! That happened to a friend of mine when I went with her to buy a new car! They lied to us all over the place, and about stupid stuff! Like telling us that the lane assist was a “Full self driving system, like the Tesla” when all it does is stop you from drifting out of your lane, and if you let go of the steering wheel, it shuts off! She ended-up getting a car for thousands off sticker, because she complained to the owner!

I genuinely hope you have better luck going forward.
Sincerely, Laura. 🤗 🥰

This moment forever lives rent free in my mind. Worked at this horrible retail place, but had great fellow co-workers. Management however---was clearly frustrated at her place in life and took her role of power over others to an extreme. The catalyst was my co-worker asking for day off to attend her cousins funeral. I volunteered to take her shift, should have been no big deal. Manager lady took it as an affront that no one asked her if that was okay, when literally all we did was ask and confirm with each other, and then ask her for the actual permission. She told my co-worker she would not let her off work because it wasn't an immediate family member. She was absolutely distraught. My final straw was asking someone to take ONE shift for me and I was trading with her shift, so I could study for my University finals, and manager lady told me, this was unacceptable and that I needed to choose between school and work (the way I looked at her like she had several screws loose).

It was at that moment that I clearly chose school. I called all my co-workers, told them I was quitting and not to pick up their phones the next day because I was the only person that would be on shift with the manager and she would surely call them to pick up the slack. Gathered up all my belongings, made sure I did this after I already picked up my last paycheck, and then after my shift the day before, I came back after hours and slipped a lovely thank you letter under the door thanking literally everyone else but her, for all their care, laughter, and help towards me and let them know I would not be back (which I'd already told them).

The next day, she left 6 messages saying I better come in, how dare I not show up, she would call everybody in town and ruin my future chances of employment. My co-worker called me and was like, she was PISSED and was going off on me the day after I quit when she worked her first shift because no one picked up or came in so she had to work the whole day by herself. Ughhhh, it was sooo good! Even better, the company folded a month later and the whole place shut down. Guess school was more important...weird.

When I bought my wife's car from a dealership way back in 2009, another dealership had the exact same car with less mileage, 1 year newer and $3000 less than the one at the second dealership. Unfortunately that car was sold the night before. While talking to the salesman at the second dealership, I told him about the other car. I told him to knock off 7k from the price and I'll buy it. I wrote down the price I was willing to pay, everything included. He's like " oh I can't go that low". I got up and started walking out. He stopped me and said he'll talk to the sales manager. After he came back he said they could take off 4k. I said no thanks and started walking again. They stopped me again. They said they would talk to the dealership manager. When they came back they said they would do the deal for 7k less. I reminded them that the number I wrote down was the " out the door price, nothing more ". They agreed and I drove the car home and gave it to my wife as her birthday present.

You have to be stern with them and not let them take control. If they are hungry enough, you'll get what you want

I used to buy and sell cars. I dealt with scumbag car sales people all the time. They totally deserve their bad reputation. The ones at the dealerships are actually not as bad as the individuals who sell cars. Those people are some of the worst scumbags on the planet.

Unfortunately people need cars, so you have to deal with those people. You just need to do your homework and be very careful - and stand your ground.

Rule #1) Car salesmen are lying. They might tell the truth every now and then, but never EVER assume what they say is true. Don't even do it.

This dude is a whole new level of clowns xD

The last time I got it was when a driver tried to trick my sister for a fake accident she invented, the woman said my sister bumped her car and said a whole ton of bullshit, she forced her to gave her adress, name etc... because she wanted to ask money from my sister insurance in the end it's my sister insurance that asked the woman to pay money because she was the one in the wrong. She had to give 800 euros to my sister and had also trouble with the police for lying.

I told the woman there's no ways she can win because she was obviously lying (just like the 3 guys backing her up were) but she refused to listen to men so in the end she had to give money to my sister, was expelled from her insurance and had trouble with the police.

We learn that she invented this whole story because she tried to trick my sister into giving her money to be able to redo her whole car for free to be able to sell it higher. Joke on her. She lost everything and her car lost all her value.

Best I can think of at the moment was I told a client he needed to replace his water heater due to age and condition. I quoted him the price and he became furious. Said the price was bullshit, I was trying to gouge him, and he could get some mexicans to do it for half as much. I said OK packed my bags and left. About 2 weeks later I get sent out to a call for the same guy, he wanted me to come out and check on the mexican's work to make sure it was up to code (I presume also to gloat that he got it done at a steal.) As soon as I walked in I noted that they replaced the water heater with an incorrect vent and as a result were leaking carbon monoxide throughout the house. I asked him if anyone in the home had been experiencing headaches or shortness of breath. He said yes, his wife was coming down with a cold. I got a carbon monoxide detector and showed him what had happened. He asked how much it would be to fix the problem. I showed him my original estimate and told him he should talk to the doctor to see if his wife needed treatment for monoxide poisoning. We got the job done that day at full price and I think he learned a lesson.

I spent 8 hours on the lot negotiating with this guy who thought he was hot shit and kept telling him "I just need to go talk to my boss" went outside, had a smoke, made a phone call, left for lunch, ran some errands everytime I didn't like his or his bosses answers. Even told him from the jump I wanted to lease, got the numbers where I wanted them eventually and then said I want the same numbers to buy. Even got him to use part of his commission towards future oil changes.

Last year, when my previous employer tried to hire me back.

The manager I was working for at the time... how he successfully convinced his boss to give him that job is a mystery that will never be solved by anyone. He was the worst boss I've ever had. He had a very chaotic management style, he was a woefully horrendous, dreadful, awful communicator, he changed his mind on stuff every other week, and made generally very unintelligent decisions (like putting me by myself on the busiest part of the week by myself with no backup and no overtime).

These and a variety of other factors resulted in him asking for my resignation. Well, three months later, everyone else in my department had quit and so guess who had to do our job? He did!

He agreed to try hiring me back, but by that time, I was too busy accepting a promotion and $10,000 pay raise.

Good job!

I hate negotiating car prices. When I bought my last car (the one I'm driving now) 10 years ago, the salesman and I agreed on the car; now we had to talk about price. I wrote down the number I was willing to pay... cash... and handed it to him. It was about $1500 less than he wanted but took it to his manager. A few minutes later the manager came back and offered his price, less $500. I pointed to the paper and said that's the price I'm paying. The manager hesitated and I started to get up, then he said OK. There's an advantage to doing your homework, knowing what the dealer pays the manufacturer for the car, add a reasonable profit (much less than what they want to charge) plus it's good to buy near the end of their financial quarter, when they want to reduce inventory for the start of the next quarter.

Sooo typical for a stealership. Screw that guy and his damn managers. I would not have the nerves for buying a car in these environments.

(You have seen Fargo, I assume? It depicts the scummy car salesman perfectly).

One time some guy that was a employee at a site I was doing security at was trying to tell me how to do my job and I was suppose to get carts a clean them during the covid pandemic. I told him my job was to enforce the mask mandate and that was in effect. He called my supervisor and my supervisor show him the post order and what I was there for and it said nothing about carts. The employee got real mad and his supervisor sent him home because he had no authority over me and tell me what to do.

There was a girl in college that I had an instant crush on the second I met her, and she instantly hated me for no apparent reason. I never did anything to her but the hate just spewed out. Let’s call her T

Second girl who I didn’t really talk to much in college but lives like 20 minutes from me, let’s call her B.

So I haven’t seen either in like 14 years and B got ahold of me on Snapchat because she is having a cook out and others from college are coming. I didn’t realize that T & B became friends. So I go and get to talking to B and it comes up that we are both single. So we are hanging out by the fire and T shows up, she comes to find B sitting on my lap.

T decides to bitch slap B because apparently me coming was her idea. I guess treating me like shit was her way of showing she had a crush on me.

So me and B are dating now and I’m laughing about T
