I realy hope this is no repost, I got quite some good laughs out of it! That guy who made all that "work" seems to be a total douche!

ii quinn (10:17:19 AM): ya 2am, to finish a camry, then decided, ill sleep so i can be here early to do up your car
ii quinn (10:17:24 AM): instead of doing your car while im super tired
ii quinn (10:17:47 AM): in my line of work, **** ups in paint is not acceptable since it takes a lot of work to fix after haha
ii quinn (10:18:10 AM): so ya, right now im finish up the side skirts paint and the front, so i can slap the kit by 2pm
ii quinn (10:18:11 AM): -=o)
ii quinn (10:18:18 AM): ill show u pics, to entertain u
ii quinn (10:18:30 AM): so u can be working and think, 'YES! my cars done!"
