After an 8 hour drive, another $200.+ optima battery, an unnecessary repair, and a lost sale... I'd like to think that I could be that calm about it.
Well, the actual damage happened a couple of weeks ago, but it's taken this long to gather parts and find a day when the weather wasn't interfering. So I've had some time to simmer down. I was pretty blown up initially, but dwelling on it usually doesn't help. When you outsource something you should be doing yourself, there's always the chance results won't match expectations. We've all been there. Me more than I'd like to admit.
