this kid just fell off the face of the earth. I was curious to see if anyone heard from him thats all.



He works with me now, I have a 90/10 split with him.



I book the jobs and let him do all the work while I sit back and sip tea... sweet deal for me!



:shocked
 
I heard he did this to some itailian mafia's boss's car... He sleeps with the fishes now :(





(J/K I have no friggin clue since he destroyed that ferrari a bit back after this lambo dibacal)
 
I talk to him all the time. He says hello to everyone in this thread showing their support and would like more people to hate Todd. He's actually going to start a detailing forum and would like everyone to participate actively when it gets going. He's hoping to do another US tour next spring and has a pretty large list of prespects started so far. Oh, and he'll be fully insured this time.
 
I remember GotWax (i think it was him) had posted that one of his customers was talking to him. I dont remember the exact story but it was something along those lines. Basically hes still doing the same stuff he got busted for in the first place

I'm sitting at work, and not much is happening so i read this 13 page thread, LOL, that's funny stuff, even if the drama has been over for quite a while. One thing, Todd goofing on that jerk WAS funny, if you didn't get it or disagree, F off ok.



I grew up farming with my uncles (both WWII vets) and if you screwed up, you were the butt of many jokes to come for weeks. I learned a lot about respect, thinking before acting, and grew a thick skin and all those things helped me later on in life.



That's one thing wrong with the youth of today, there're a bunch of momma's boys that can't have their widdle feelins hurt. Poor bitches!
 
[Old thread gets resurrected and two sorta-grumpy guys kick around "kids these days..." BS, wasting bandwidth...]





Noting that I'm awfully touchy-feely with regard to hurting peoples' feelings (and if somebody doesn't like *THAT* then, well, they can #^<% off :chuckle: )....



JuneBug- Heh heh, yeah, "thinking before acting" does seem sorta rare these days, huh? You mentioned guys from the Greatest Generation (and yeah, I truly do believe that)....it seems to me that in the past people had to deal with more things involving "irrevocable actions" whereas today there's a prevailing mindset of "just hit the restart button".



I think I've mentioned before how in my household the catchphrase is " 'et by Ba'rs" (translation: "eaten by bears"), meaning that in the past Darwinism was a lot more *real*; if you were stupid/careless/foolish you got dead in a hurry, so people were more careful about not [screwing] up and that bled over into noncritical areas of endeavor as well. "I'm not a screw-up" meant something, and people knew the diff between true self-esteem and today's "selfish steam" that everyone seems to feel entitled to.



Holden-C04 displayed a bit of that selfish steam. Then he [screwed] up, and he got 'et by b'ars. At least he's not really dead, so he can learn from his mistakes and redeem himself. I for one wouldn't bash on him if he reappeared here (a little wiser).
 
After this incident happened, OP used to still call me here and there. I could tell he was reaching out to chat and kind of get over this whole thing, but the lack of initiative to fix the mistakes on this Lamborghini really did not sit well with me. Tyler if you're reading this - mistakes like this will haunt you forever. Despite this being a few years ago, make it right with the owner and at least offer some compensation. I can't associate myself with people that do not take responsibility for their mistakes and deal with them like a person of honour, so I won't be reciprocating any communication with you. I would do the same to any of my friends. These types of incidents really hurt our business too.


Best of luck with whatever you are doing - hopefully you find it in yourself to make right with the owner. The only thing holding one back from moving forward is choosing not to correct themselves.
