Driving Hazards on the job >_<

Tue Jun 24, 2008, 1:43 PM
Well, I guess I am finding out any job isn't without its risks. For those who don't know, I work for a contractor repairing Dell computers, and I have to drive around my local area, which includes allot of parking garages, the street, etc.

Anyway, I now have to deal with a front bumper that has a hole in it because apparently some jerk decided to do a hit-and-run to it (I didn't notice it until I got home that night), and now I have a heavily dented back bumper and a broken off light cover due to apparently bumping into a concrete poll or something in a parking garage. Once again, I didn't notice until later because I didn't feel it. Why do they make cars with such weak "bumpers" (if you can even call them that as they can't even take a bump as this proves).

At least it won't cost near as much as we thought, especially since we found a place that has the parts for pretty cheap, but its still potentially going to cost a few hundred to get it all fixed and done.

I need to be more careful next time I guess.... *Sigh* Its just been a bad week so far, and it just started >_<.

Its OK, but it has its good and bad moments. Like I might have a easy 3 minute job of installing a keyboard or I could have a hour and 15 minute job of reinstalling vast majority of the components in the machine. But most of my jobs are replacing the motherboard, which is a 30-45 minute job.
That's cool.

Now for my Amazing Power! I CAN PREDICT THE PAST! :evillaugh:
yeah bumpers are super cheap these days but a pain in the rear to install (and expensive) nice that you found a cheap set. But make shure its put on good and done properly cause its a safety issue if its not.

I think they make bumpers that fragile because like everything in the car their designed to "dissintegrate" for safety reasons in an accident.

yeah jobs that involve driving can be painful when you have to maintain your own vehicle. You can deduct some costs though off taxes at least.
