He's got you. Fold-down rear seats is a must-have as far as I am concerned. You just have to pay more for it when you have a BMW.

He also might not be entirely serious. If he's saying something like "damn it's pretty - too bad the seats don't fold!" he's obviously kidding. I'd totally say something like that, and people misunderstand me all the time because umm...maybe the things I say are only funny to me...no way to tell on that one.
Maybe don't take yourself so seriously. Is he really giving you actual shit over your seats not folding? Pretty unlikely. Even if he is, it's not something to get offended about. They're friggin seats. That said, my seats fold. Suckaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa

I would joke right back at him about his car, but not in a hurtful manner. If you think it affects your raise go to HR. Fuck that guy. Also, you could always look for another job.

You could own an F430, and he could drive a 1972 Datsun and he'd still be above you. He's still your boss, and that takes away any cool factor you could gain from having a great car.

be the bigger man and walk away. let your boss say what he wants. may be a chance he's just joking. he's complaining about folding rear seats... c'mon now... really? maybe he's a douche, i can see how him making jokes on the folding seats after a year could be annoying but so what? you're driving home in an e90 he's driving a 90's accord. /thread.

.....awesome, you have to say this to your boss. Do it or your story is fake and you just want attention.

Wouldn't do any good - the Accords do that, too. So did my Mazda 6. That's not really a feature unique to BMW.

Grrr, be nice to that poster, it goes both ways. This is like a guy I eat lunch with. He asks for advice, doesn't give all of the necessary information, then gets pissed when you give him an answer that doesn't take his missing info into account. Now, I try not to give him advice because he always has to act like a total douche about it.

Damn, I didn't expect these many responses... My boss is a nice guy and he is joking around about the rear seats... and it doesn't get to me, but shouldn't he come up with new joke or something after a year? I'm just tired of hearing a same one over and over... he is looking to get another car now, may be accord or sonata or something. And I did mention it to him that Certified preowned 3 series are not expensive at all... So who knows, he might listen to me and get a 3 series, but I'm pretty sure if he does get one he will look very hard to find one with folding rear seats... otherwise I'll be on his case for a year about it... lol.
Anyways, thanks for the input guys....

I didn't care much when I found out that my E90 didn't have rear folding seats, cause I knew I'd never use it for any purpose.

I bought my car and everyone was just happy for me and complimented it. I don't tell people what I drive, however.
I just get nice comments if people happen to see me driving in to work. Your boss might think you're the type he can piss off...which is working. |

uh, easy access to the trunk? so my guess is he climbs in his backseat to fold down his seats to grab something in the trunk? did i get that right? cause while youre driving fold down rear seats does nothing..and since his kids are in college, who's back there to grab say a bag out the trunk through the back seats? maybe im just to lazy and rather pop my trunk. that way i can see where Everything is and its not...dark? |
