Quagmire-oh yeah!

Hey cutie!

Good to hear you met a cutie pie!!!

Yeah, Jr was having mood swings today. I'm working under an F-350 Super Duty and I hear something hit a tool box. I slide out and look and he's throwing wrenches. I looked at him and said "Enough". He stopped. Later he threw a broom across the shop and almost hit a car. I said "Pick it up, put it back". He looked at me funny and did it. Around 5 he threw an oil filter across the shop and was yelling that the service manager is a mother fucker. I said "I agree. Pick up the filter, throw it away, clock out and go home." He picked it up, threw it away, and stopped and said "Do I really have to go home?" I nodded and he said "Why don't you yell or anything" I just shrugged and walked away. He followed me and asked if he could stay and I said "Can you quit throwing tantrums and act your age?" He chilled out. They are starting to listen to me. They like the way I keep the customers out of the bays. And the fact that I don't yell. Also if a customer is a dick, I have a standing policy of parking their car at the far end of the lot so they get to take the "Walk of Shame". I'm teaching them quiet rebellion.
