Already wrong, I live Near, not in there.
No sarcasm again, just being honest, I don't really need to know what all you've done, I'm not the one asking. Nor was I again questioning your credentials... That's between you and him in PM's.
Right, I said
I do not let anyone else touch
MY car. <-- see that little guy there, the period. End of sentence, end of thought. Nothing more, nothing less. I made no hint/attempt to deny your ability to work on cars, or negate your status as a tech.
I don't know your rep, I don't know you work on audio installs (prior to this conversation) So how can I be for/against you working on someone elses car? Exactly. I wasn't. I was merely putting in that comment for face value alone. You're trying to make it into more than it was.
Ok, well if you did, you'd see that you're complaining about someone supposedly making derogatory comments about you, but then you immediately follow it up with a derogatory comment about them... So perhaps you might want to take another look at it.
Again, I never said anything against your abilities/expertise, and if you don't believe me, you might want to re-read it.
So there was no comment to "let slide".
There was no sarcasm. And I have met you. And you were a pretty decent guy at that point. Which is why I have no reason to say anything against you, like I've now repeated a dozen times that I wasn't.
That's why there was no underlying tone associated with it. I simply put in my two cents. Instead of immediately feeling threatened by it, you could have simply asked me was it in reference to you, and I would have happily said no. But instead you're blowing it out of proportion.
Sure, come on down to the MD meets? Especially now that you have a Z again. But I don't really see what's going to be different face to face vs on here, there was nothing negative said either way.
