I think I had a better chance of that happening before he saw the car and parts

Glad you made it back home in one piece.

a sign of disrespect is not apologizing nor offering explanations of of shoddy work and ill-designed parts.

as well as arguing with the reviews myself and some other VARY accomplished racers and engineers had to offer on various important parts.

most of the reviews were of the nature and level that far exceed his education, yet he disagreed.

My whole thing that brought it to a close was the happy trails comment he made. That was a huge sign of disrespect. Everything about how things were handled was totally unprofessional. To the way the parts were stored, to well pretty much everything I saw.

O Hai... I found a transcript of what was said at JBP...




Hey, keep chillin'. You know who we are? We're associates of your business partner, Rod. You do remember your business partner, don't you? Let me take a wild guess here. You're Mev, right?

Yeah

I thought so. You remember your business partner Rod, don't you, Mev?

Yeah, yeah, I remember him.

What does Rod look like?

What?

What country you from?

What?

What ain't no country I ever heard of! They speak English in What?

What?

ENGLISH, ************! DO-YOU-SPEAK-IT?

Yes!

Then you know what I'm saying!

Yes!

Describe what Rod looks like!

What, I-?

Say what again. SAY WHAT AGAIN. I dare you, I double dare you, ************. Say what one more goddamn time.

He's w-w-white...

Go on.

He's sexi...

Does he look like a bitch?

What?

[Paul shoots Mev in shoulder]

DOES HE LOOK LIKE A BITCH?

No!

Then why you try to **** him like a bitch, Mev?

I didn't.

Yes you did. Yes you did, Mev. You tried to **** him. And Rod don't like to be fucked by anybody, except Mrs. Rod.
