“If there's one thing to be said about the LR community, we know how to take it and dish it out equally and goodnaturedly!“
On my first date with my then future wife, who was working as a claims adjuster for GMAC insurance, she reported to me that Land Rover and Porsche owners were all assholes. I then told her that I owned one of each.
It seems all the claims adjusters felt this way as apparently they didn’t get the “dish it out and take it humor“ as well.
I asked her to elaborate a little bit. She said they were mostly all rude, would buy the cheapest insurance possible, but when they had to live with aftermarket parts they all kind of lost it.
The more tenured claims adjusters were allowed to cherry pick the claims they handled. As such, guess who got the Land Rover and Porsche claims? Yep, the brand new folks.
I also had a boss, pre-Internet, everyone called the tiger behind the typewriter. He was an angry little man.
