after working a 12hr night shift decided to change my girls brake pads which were well overdue (had rotors turned the night before), finished all 3 pads and on the fourth installed the inner pad backwards, didn't check my work and went to sleep. When i woke up my girl said that her cars squeeling now and questioned my work. Instantly i realized what i probably did and sure enough the rotor was FUBAR. No worries though, I played my man card and just told her that I noticed that the rotor was pretty bad when i changed the pads and that we now need a new one. I told her this happens if you don't change your brakes on time. Of course she didn't know any better... She still thinks it was her fault....ha/ha
