Where did this darn habit come from? *frenzied*

I'm sorry for being too emotinal here but there's a definite difference between being upset, frenzied and f-ing frenzied. I'm really f-ing frenzied here.
I wonder whether us fellow saabers also suffer from mechanics who bolt the wheel bolts on with pneumo wrench and don't give a single f what this wrench is set to. Just changed my wheels to summer ones and almost broke my socket. Here it looks like every single mech is trying to win undeclared competetion bolting the wheel nuts and bolts as hard as his pneumo wrench is able to bolt. This is just crazy. Yes, one can say "buddy, don't be too hard on this" and this wheel won't have the bolts overtightened. But you must say this four times: once per wheel. And this doesn't mean that the next time you come to this shop you'll have your wheels bolted on properly. &#^$%! f-ing ^%##!
Ok, in order to keep this post friendly and polite (we all drive saabs here, not honda's, don't we?) here goes the final pic for the poly-V project. This is beautifull, isn't it? Nick, you asked me whether this will help to withstand crank-pulley issues - Nick, sorry, I don't care about pulley issues, I just wanted to get rid of that awful design with plenty of V-belts and get a poly-V. Powersteering is still driven by a separate V-belt but I'll probably get this whole stuff finally driven by a single poly-V belt. Don't have any ETA on this since too tired of tranny rebuild and tyre swap and there must be lots of idle pulleys added if adding the next pulley to be driven by poly-V.
I'll post some other pics on this project within this thread.
