Your lucky your boss will cover the repair.
Still too bad there are inconsiderate people out there.
I would not be able to sleep if I did that and did not leave a note with my contact info.

Sorry to see someone is too stupid to know how to drive...and then has the audacity to just leave. The world is full of inconsiderate people any more and it's just a shame.

I've got those black bumper guards and they still don't stop the idiots. I noticed when detailing Smoke that the paint on the upper part of my HHR is spidered a little bit (paint not broken though). Looks like someone may have backed into it and hit it just hard enough to move the bumper. You really have to look for it, but I know it's there. Stupid people really irritate me...and I'm one of those that parks in the north 40 wherever I go. I've parked out so far I was the only car in the area, to come out to it being surrounded. Seems to me sometimes it attracts more idiots than it deters if you park in a regular spot.

You can really see how rude people are based on thier cell phone habits. Yesterday while pumping gas a chick drove up to the pump and never stopped talking. She filled up and then went inside, loaded her arms with 3 wine bottles and then cut in line to put the bottles on the counter because she could not hold them while on the phone. We were all subjected to her meaningless converstaion and waited while she fumbled to get her credit card out. All this time still talking as she paid and drove away.

I also see people on the phone while trying to pull in and out of a parking space. They use one hand to turn the steering wheel all the way around. No wonder these fender benders happen. People think their vehicle is a couch with wheels and just talk away as if they are at home.

This is already happening. There are a number of movie theaters that are using jammers to stop cell phone use in theaters.

I worked a second job in the store of an "upscale" retailer. I simply did not wait on people talking on cell phones. I simply told them that I wouldn't dream of interrupting an important call and that I would be very happy to help them when they were finished. Most people took the polite and subtle hint and hung up.

you didn't get a paint touch up stick or paint with a brush in a glass container?
