Such a bunch of bullshit I'm gonna wind up with a car payment again. Insurance sucks. This country sucks. The fucking idiot who hit me sucks. So annoyed.

Picked up in the afternoon a bit but on the drive home, Mrs Wease called me and I could hear the youngest weaseling in the background in hysterics. They weren’t together so I don’t know if it was conference or what. Weaseling has a bad flat tire. Ok, I’ll check it when I get back into town. So, she and her car are at her work and I plan on going straight there. Well, she got fired for being on her cell phone during a shift the other day. One of her other workers told on her. No, she shouldn’t have been on it, but all she did was answer a text from her mother. She had it out for literally 5-10 seconds. But, against the rules, so… Her supervisor told her how great a worker she is, how she always comes in early, stays late if they ask, picks up shifts when they need her to, always cleans… Just an all around great worker. But, she had to let her go.

I get to her car and there’s a 2”x2” chunk torn out of her tire. Im like WTF?!? She told her mother she ran over a rock. So she then sends us a pic of the rock. It’s a fucking boulder. It’s 3’ long x 2’ tall x 2’ deep. It’s like the fucking Excalibur stone. And she ran over it. I get it changed with the bicycle spare and that’s flat too. I mean, it has air in it but I couldn’t tell it wasn’t enough until the weight of the car was on it. Flat. So we have some friends bring their air compressor and we fill it up and I drive it to the tire shop so they can put a new one on it tomorrow. Hopefully the wheel isn’t warped from her driving over the rock of Gibraltar.
