OK, I'll be the first to admit that I do not condone "goofing off" while you're on the company clock. That said, if you work in a Dealership and you have to deal with the general public all day long, there is something to be said for taking a quick mental break.

Here's a site I check out on occasion: http://www.doingitwrong.com/

The site is a collection of pictures of people "Doing it wrong." (Once you're on the site you need to click on the current picture to see the next picture - or hit your screen refresh button.)

The following picture will give you an idea of what you'll find on the site:

Question This guy must really like his Mountain Bike....

Well this will certainly reduce the risk of an unwanted pregnancy.

Unhappy So, you think that you're having a bad day...

I first saw this picture on the Internet about a year ago. Apparently a cable or a strap broke and sent the yacht into the bay bow first. Not a good day.

Question What could possibly be that important?

What could possibly be that important and why would you ever want it back?

Thanks for the comment.

I totally agree that there's a need to get a way and have a quick laugh - especially when you're working in the car business.

Default Is the woman in the background laughing?

With the current quest to increase fuel economy we may be seeing more scooters on the road.


Maybe the helmet manufacturer will want to revise their instructions - it appears that there may be some confusion.

Maybe that's how they do it in Europe or where ever that seems to be.

I think you're correct about the Europe part - it does look like she's driving on the "wrong" side of the road.

That said, that helmet still doesn't look right......

Default What do you do when you can't afford to fix the A/C?

Perhaps an alternative for those customers that can't afford to get their Air Conditioning fixed at the dealership?

Default Somedays it just feels like nothing's going right...

OK, the car business has been pretty depressing for the past couple of months - I thought this photo might lighten things up.
