I guess this proves that I am married. A doggy ramp? Want to know how long I have been married? It took me a year to complete this project, so you know I have been married for more than a year.
This is for our 3 dogs (Dalmation and 2 French Bulldogs).
I got a call telling me that all my bays were broken and green chemical was pouring out of the equipment room. Only one hose was busted but it did make a mess inside.
I do like cheese on my Krystal’s but I did not need a sign at my wash to remind me. Also someone busted up my curb and I got an “Authorized personnel only” and “Danger keep out” sign.
At least they did not steal my vacuum claw, 3 bags of nasty clothing and I need to fix my meter box so money does not fall out.
I had a high pressure hose leak in the bay. I guess it made someone mad and they broke the high pressure gun. I just swapped the gun out with a Cat gun, a flex wand and a really long hose.
I had a high pressure gun problem I thought. I swapped out the gun then figured out that is was the wand.
I guess they held the hill climbing championship at my car wash and the limbs did not deter them. Actually they crushed the limbs all up and it is actually nice and should make it easier to throw them away.
The coin acceptor had a coin jam. I am always amazed how a mechanical coin acceptor can last 100 years and an IDX only can last 1 year.
The first arrow is the last product indicator and the second picture is how the customer pulls out the product they purchased. The last picture is the same as the first.
The first picture is the last product indicator in place. The second and third picture is how the product dispenser is setup. Also, the problem with the coin jam was crap on 2 quarters.
I think the problem occured because someone tried to open the meter boxes again. The bike rope slid under the coin acceptors making them jam; also cracking off the coin funnel. The fix?
I crossed the bike rope so it could not slide under the coin acceptors. You know, the opposite of what the Ghostbushers would do (don’t cross the streams). I need to fix the meter door locks because I guess the gap is to tempting?
A business next to me was throwing away some stainless shelves. I already have them cramped with crap. Next I have 3 “High School Musical” all access tickets (actually these are not cool; I threw them away). The last one is a Samsung blue tooth WEP200. This is exactly what I always wanted! Now I can keep it in my ear at all times to look like I am important, YEA! Actually, I did not find a charger so it is useless.
