Default You have to be kidding me!

Well just great, I've been working in the same building for 2 years now and some douche bag hit the rear of my car and didn't leave a note! I can't believe this crap! I am so pissed right now! I know the damage is going to be expensive because of the paint on this car!

sorry I only had my camera phone on me.

most of can be buffed out, but there about 4 different locations were the paint is gone. The security cameras only look around where the elevators are stationed.

What sucks is once I get it fixed I'm going to be paranoid parking it at work now

push for installation for more security camera at work garage, and at the mean time, get up an hour earlier and park right next to the elevator where the security camera can see it!!!

I actually get to work at 7:00 a.m when I'm suppose to be here at 8:30 a.m. so I can get one of the best parking spots. I also park where it is nearly impossible for someone to hit me. So I believe it was the person that was parked next to me, but since I haven't seen her car lately I have to wait until tomorrow. If she doesn't drive the same car tomorrow then it had to be her.

Insurance does but my deductible is $1000. The cost to fix is $800. There seems to be a lot of construction going on at work. I am going to try to make the building pay for at least half of the damage! I mean our office pays a fee monthly to park there and I should have to worry about being hit!

Well, wait to see who's not at work tomorrow haha... Make them pay!

And good luck with trying to have the building pay... They aren't responsible for damages usually.
