FREE beverage of your choice (in exchange for labor)

Anyone want to put my front rotors and new pads on for me this weekend?
Got my new rotors from tirerack in yesterday. Gonna pickup the new pads tonight.
Will provide beverage of choice to anyone that wants to help install them. (By help, I don't mean that you will just be standing there over my shoulder telling me that I am doing it wrong, that's what I have a wife for).

Dang! Too bad I have to work this weekend. 5 hour drive for free beer would be worth it.

I would like to help but um, er, ah, I gotta check and see if my elbow is half way up my arm. Yeah, that's it.
Actually, I gotta drag the old R model to a show this weekend and no I don't mean the other half.

I could help but it would interfere with my plans to sit in my easy chair and watch college football all day long on Saturday. Besides, McKinney is SO far from Lewisville.

That is a perfectly acceptable excuse (Go Penn State, Joepa, Joepa)

Lunch would be no problem. However, I don't know if I could slip a big screen TV past the "CFO", even if I listed it as "tools required" to perform maintenance.

I could classify it as a "visual aid".

Shoot...I'm surprised you're already changing the front pads on your truck. The rotors come off easy and pad's well they aren't too hard....Do you McKinney boys need an audience to do a brake job?

It's the thought that counts

That sounds like a lot more fun than what I'll be doing.
(and I've seen you work for beer )

This will be the third set of pads (gone through 1 factory set and 1 lifetime replacement Autozone set). Audiences are always welcome, the more the merrier.
