Default EPIC FAIL on the way to work today

maybe he/she had to use duct tape in the mean time until they could get it fixed? not quite sure that really qualifies as an 'epic fail' though.

having an issue with your hatch is fine, what i was trying to point out is that the guy used like 30 rolls of duct tape to do it when a few strips prob would have been plenty.

that was the epic fail
