Today, I got my car back from the repair shop. After paying $400 for them to fix the scratches on the driver's side door, some one decided to key both sides of my car while I was on my lunch break from work. FML

Today, after getting my car completely fixed after it being damaged for a year, I was driving and the entire side panel on the car fell off. The repair man forgot to put the screws back in. FML

Today, I woke up to find the entire driver's side of my car wrecked. Front door, back door, front and rear bumper smashed to shit. A drunk driver had hit it the previous night and ran. Don't worry though, he stopped and left his insurance information. He keyed it into the undamaged side of my car. FML

Today, I accidentally hit someone's car while in the supermarket car park. I left a note, went shopping, and when I came back my windows were shattered, my tires were slashed, and "FUCK YOU" was written on my windshield. FML

Loot

Today, my car got broken into. A small folded plastic bag and a few toothpicks I got from a restaurant were stolen. It's going to cost me a few hundred bucks to fix and clean my car over a 10 cent bag and a few free toothpicks. FML

Today, I parked my car to go inside to grab my wallet than I'd forgotten. In the short time it took me to do that, someone broke two of my car's windows. FML

Today, I picked up my car after I got it painted. As I backed up in the parking lot, my car scraped against a pillar. Now I have to put it right back in the shop. FML

if it was one of your co workers, I'd find out who it was and waste their car because that seriously sucks. FYL OP

Unless someone would etch in a profane word, I wouldn't bother getting a new paint job. Waste of money, and if someone did it once, they're gonna do it again.

The people saying YDI for paying $400 to sort the scratches out, are probably the same people who drive around in cheap, crappy cars. Yes, cars get scratched, but that doesn't mean we should just leave them scratched. Do you also never wash your car because it'll only get dirty again anyway?

I fix scratches on my car all the time due to working casual at a shopping center. All you need is some graded wet and dry, some paint mixed with the code from the user manual and a hose. Sand it down and fill the body, Wait for it to dry then sand the filler down, respray over and it looks brand as new with some buffing and polish. Some people just need to learn to do work on their cars themselves and NOT get ripped off. I bet the mechanic/Body shop only spent $25 on paint and $100 on labor.
