Drives me nuts ...

[NutmegCT]

Email to friend in California: "Hi - I'm interested in that driver side heater core, and the speedometer you have for sale. Does the heater core leak? Does the speedometer work correctly?"

Friend: Haven't tested the heater core. Speedometer works fine.

Me: If the heater core has no leaks, and the speedometer works, I'll buy them both.

Friend: Great. I'll test the heater core.

No word for two weeks, so -

Me: Any luck in testing that heater core?

Friend: Did you want the driver side, or the passenger side?"

Me: Driver side. And the speedometer. Did you test the heater core for leaks?

Friend: Did you want the speedometer too?

Me: Yes, the driver side heater core, and the speedometer.

Friend: OK - I'll pack them up today.

Two weeks later -

Me: Say, do you recall when you shipped that heater core and speedometer?

Friend: I've got the heater core all ready to ship. Will do that tomorrow.

Me: Will you ship the heater core with the speedometer?

Friend: Which speedometer?



Give me Strength!

Ever happen to you?

So, do you want both the heater core and the speedometer?

Can relate fully! "By the way, where do I ship it to?"

I'm growing close - giving up and making the "final jump"!

Tom- You don't have to use the Forum to back stab me.
I'll send the core...
Which speedo do you want?

LOL - the one you didn't ship! :banana:

Run away fast.... Sounds like trouble; buy somewhere else.

And that, Good Sir, is a great play on words!!

When you say friend, do you mean close friend?

Danged self-correcting iPhones! (That's my story and I'm sticking with it )

You need to post a Rick Inghram ad - "Wanted - cat herder"
"You want fries with that?".

"Failure to communicate"? reminds me of:

 

[Gliderman8]

I understand now

I can hear Struther Martin now: "What we have hear, is a failure to communicate."

Although I note that the quote is actually "What we have here, is failure to communicate"
