WhaT a WaY tO sTarT a MoNdaY!

I don't have pictures...but I will post anyway!
It is a payroll Monday so I had to get to work EARLY! Charle and I left about 5:30 AM...the roads were pretty icy but we were being careful going about 10 mph. Well I noticed the car in front of me braking so I thought I better keep a safe distance between us so I proceeded to brake! WRONG THING TO DO. We go spinning around and sliding off the road. The truck behind me must have done the wrong thing also, he came spinning right behind us and we thought for sure he was going to hit us, but LUCKILY he didn't. He just spun and kept driving between us and the fence and took off. Well no big deal we were ok the car was fine, but how the heck do we get to WORK? REASON YOU DON'T GO TO WORK SO EARLY! I thought oh some nice guy will stop in his truck and help us out! WRONG again...we sat there for a good 15 mins nobody had stopped so we decided to call Jason to come pull us out and since it was about 5:45AM Kelly would go sleep at our house since Red would still be sound asleep. Another reason not to go to work so early...your kids are still sleeping! While we were sitting there I was getting annoyed that nobody had even stopped to offer us help. Then to tick me off more A police officer passes us I thought oh he will stop make sure we are fine. NO HE DIDN"T EVEN STOP! ISN'T THAT PART OF THEIR JOB? I know he couldn't have done anything, but what if we didn't have a cell phone and were just sitting there. HELLO I AM STRANDED ON THE ROAD MAYBE CHECK TO MAKE SURE WE ARE OK! I have had lots of situations I have been pulled off the road either for a blown tire out of gas or slid off the road, and I have always had an officer stop to offer help. So this made me pretty mad! So we are still patiently waiting for Jason to come (just sitting in the car hoping that no one slides off the road and hits us) when I notice a Stock truck pass us. OH hooray that guy works with me he will give us a ride to work. By then it was 6:00 or 6:15 and our corporate has changed policy that our payroll has to be entered by 8:00 am...we have a lot of employees and have to pay per job not just hours so I was getting stressed OUT! He didn't even notice us and I was honking! I couldn't let our ride pass us so I called him. Sweet Nate turned around and came back to get us. In the meantime a nice guy stopped and offered to pull us out. Since Jason still hadn't left we called him told him not to worry and let this nice guy help us. We sat there while he tried to get it out...no it wasn't coming. So we just left the car and headed to work! It was like 6:30 and I really needed to get payroll done. They don't wait for me if it isn't in they just won't send checks until Monday or so. So it was a funny memory, and made me realize even if I can't help much I am going to stop and make sure the people in the car are ok and have help on the way! COME ON PEOPLE LETS NOT BE IN TOO BIG OF HURRY TO HELP PEOPLE OUT! Thanks to the sweet guy that pulled over to help us and NATE.
and I got to work and got payroll in on time!!! HOORAY!
We called a tow truck to go get the car and it was free with our warranty...what a great way to start a Monday :)
