I went to an appointment in Pinellas today. I took the rental
it through up a light that there were 50 miles worth of gas left in the tank.
I went to the Wawa gas station on 22nd Ave. North in St. Petersburg.
I put $20 USD in it and that raised the level just 1/4th of the way.
I haven’t gone yet this month so I went to Saki and did my
Tasmanian devil magic trick on 6 sushi rolls, a crab salad, and a bowl of Misso soup.
I have been trying to drive the rental as little as possible. Today’s ride was
necessary. I have to drive there Monday also. I checked the claim from Progressive
and it showed as closed. I looked inside and there was an estimate in there but they are
waiting on Progressive to do something with the estimate. I got this voicemail
today from Maher collision center.
Still unable to drive from the accident Ruby is still getting fixed at the body shop. Filming a lot with my drone. I ain’t driving that gas guzzler around. I did a couple thangs in it today but I try not to drive it. I ain’t got mustang drop top kinda bread. I borrowed from Peter to pay my “child support” today. Because we all know what happens if you don’t pay them.
and oh yeah, I got some red cap milk. If it ain’t that good shit, then I don’t want it.
Dang it’s already the 9th of April! Tonight is Sunday, I was unable to drive today so I just edited some video. I took my mother to a place that she wanted to go with her friend for dinner. I dropped her off and went back there and picked her up later. I guess I am glad to have a rental car but I hate that car! It’s a droptop mustang but I hate it!
I am still unable to drive from the accident that happened on 03/25/2023. It’s Saturday night and historically Saturday night’s in St. Petersburg are really good for driving. Since I switched to driving during the day, the best driving day of the week for me now is Sunday. Tomorrow there will be no driving either though. So what I do to be productive is edit video. I have been editing video literally all day long today. Time goes by so fast when I am editing! I think it is still early afternoon and I look at the clock and it’s 11:00 PM! I can’t tell because I cover the windows so no light gets in and I pay no attention to the cameras. Time really does fly by when I am editing, I have a pretty good P.C. It renders in a couple minutes usually.
It’s Saturday, usually I would have driven today. Ruby is still getting fixed hopefully at Maher collision center in Pinellas. I didn’t hear anything from my progressive adjuster. They are very vocal about their rental vehicles. I am very responsive too. So if I get a text or a voicemail from somebody important I respond pretty quickly. I have heard nothing from anyone. I figured I wouldn’t because that collision center is closed on the weekends. So that means everything is on hold until the techs get back to work. So I keep the rental car over the weekend. Which is cool because that thing is a gas guzzler and I don’t like to drive it because of that. When I have to drive it back to Pinellas it’s going to gobble gas. It does have a backup camera and Bluetooth which is cool. On the highway though I think it said it was getting like 29 miles to the gallon which is horrible!
I dropped my car off at a body shop in St Petersburg today. The rental car I got from Enterprise is a 4 cylinder Mustang. That is all they had. I was like cool, I just need something to drive. I should have dropped my car there last week. I usually have my car towed there. My adjuster at progressive advised
me not to drive it. That was good advice but I was having problems getting the damage appraised. The virtual adjustment could only adjust the hood, the front clip and the windshield from the photos that I took yesterday. I know there is far more damage than that. I never even popped the hood after the accident because I was afraid it wouldn’t close again. Anyway it is now at a body shop getting repaired.
I am still not able to drive from the accident that happened on 03/25/2023.
Just today, I do not know why my progressive adjuster suggested we do a “virtual
estimate” Why we didn’t do this before I have no idea and I do not care. I just
need to get this don’t so I can get my car repaired so I can get back to driving again.
This is going to put me in bankruptcy. I took the pictures and submitted them to progressive
and she stated she was trying to get this done today but it may go until tomorrow. I reminded her that
we are now 11 days out. Geico would have me back on the road already. I do not know what progressive
is doing. Its a good thing I can still drive Ruby. Because I would really be screwed if not.
I am still at home unable to drive since the accident on 03-25-2023.
tomorrow the damage estimator from Progressive is coming to assess the damage.
to my car. I have a place picked out to repair the damage to Ruby. The place
that I went to in the past is in Pinellas County they always do precision work
and they are very fast too, they told me they have a couple technicians out on vacation
and they are booked out until the end of April 2023. I called a place here in Manatee County
and they advised they do not work with progressive at all. So I will contact another place tomorrow
and see if they can do the work.
A rider that was in my car during the accident, the guy that yelled “FUCK” lmao.
If I was alone, I probably would have said that too.
He Just sent me the $45.00 that Uber refunded to him for that trip!
That was very cool of him!! For that trip, I was paid 26.10 in total.
So in addition to all the expenses that an Uber driver has to pay, plus the wear
and tear on their vehicle, and the risk that the driver takes on. I did pretty well on that trip, I got almost 60%
Thanks a lot, John!
Edit: That was a “What the fuck” not a “Fuck!”
I just reviewed the recording lol.
