Submitted By Les Brown (Mar 4, 2004) This one engineer had a habit of being late for work. Very late and very often. Ultimately he was reprimanded and told that if he were late once more he'd be suspended. He drove an old and very tired car with paper thin tires and severe oil leaks. Since he worked overnights, he parked in the front lot, under the watchful eyes of Mr. Steadfast Then the stars mis-aligned. He was on the way up County Street from 195, within smelling distance of getting to work on time when a rear tire went flat. No chance to change it! He continued to drive. The tire got rattier and rattier and finally fell offentirely, leaving just the rim. He did a high speed turn into the parking lot, scoring a huge gash through the newly-refinished asphalt. For some unknown reason (director) Andy Nechesnoff got the job of writing the memo... "You are not to park your car in the WTEV front lot until you have tires on all four wheels and until you have repaired the oil leaks to the extent that they will no longer dissolve the asphalt surface." "Congratulations on having made it to work on time!" |
