Default Holy Rusted Metal Batman!!!

Ok, so seriously. I left on the 5th of September for Denmark (for business). I got back last night, took my baby out for a ride, and she did great. Then this morning I go to put some dirty dry cleaning in the car and what do I notice. A big rust spot on my right rear quarter panel. From what you ask? That's what I asked myself too considering my car is kept in an underground heated garage at my apartment.

So it turns out that during a rain storm a pipe leaked, but did not leak just water. It in fact leaked rust/water onto my right rear quarter panel which then (over the course of the two weeks I was gone) eat through my paint. Now my baby has a black eye and I want her to be beautiful again. I am going to take it up with management at the apartment complex today, but I am so mad that I may need some deep breaths before I go in there. Wooossaahhh. I know that in the end it will be alright, but seriously if I have to pay extra money for a garage spot then by God I did that so my car stayed clear of the elements, which better damn well include rust. This is war...

...will keep you updated.

Oh, just got back from Denmark. Anyone ever seen a 300m Container ship loaded to the hilt with cargo. Holy crap, its impressive to say the least. Unfortunately no pictures allowed... I'm working on rectifying that.

Fun fact about Maersk (the shipping company I work for). At any moment in time, roughly 3% of the worlds GDP is being transported on a Maersk Vessel. That is somewhere in the range of $32 billion. Just in case you wanted to know. Anything else you wanna know you can ask, doesn't matter.

RUST BE DAMNED!!!!

Sorry to hear about your bad experience. Fix it soon before it gets worst. You may want to consider a cover to put on when you travel and plan to be out for a while.
