So now I guess I’m getting paid to sit in bumfuck nowhere and wait for a tow truck. And of course, like a movie detective, it died one day before retirement. I was swapping into a new van tomorrow and this one was getting traded in. I’ll miss the old barge though. It had been owned and modified by several different contractor outfits at various points in it’s life so it definitely had character.


Pouring one out for your fallen comrade.
Thank you. I think it deserves a viking funeral by our fleet manager just mumbled something about trade in value.
Just do an impromptu Viking funeral before the tow truck arrives,
Put in neutral release the hand brake, set on fire and push down the road
Couldn’t do that. The van belongs to my employer but my entire net worth is in the tools in the back of it. Had to at least get those home and if it told him to bring a u-haul instead of a tow truck then the fire might be a bit suspicious.
Someone will fix it up and use it to give out free candy.
Or 10mm sockets.
Hey, those are mine and I want them back.
Of course.
Surely it’s a windowless white van…
No transmission and 500000 miles? There’s a reason he is fleet manager and you’re not. Sniff. 💩
