Need a ride?
So, I'm on my way to work this morning and I see the hazard lights on a vehicle up ahead. I pull over and it's a guy that is on his way to work and some bolt came out of his crankshaft pulley and the truck won't go vroom vroom anymore. So, I tell him to climb in and I'll take him where he needs to go. Here's the conversation:
Me- So, where do you need to go?
Him- Uh...know where TA truckstop is?
Me- Sure.
Him- Can you take me der? My mom is fixin to leave with a load on her way to a rig down below Cameron. Mom drives hotshot ya see.
Me- Ok.
Him- I can't believe that truck left me on the side of the road again. I thought I had it fixed last time that bolt come out. I put some loctite on it, can't imagine how it come loose. I just bought another engine for my Ranger though, only cost me $400...engine and transmission. Hope it works...the guy looked pretty honest. Hey, you want to know how to make some extra money? I know a guaranteed way.
Me- Would you mind giving me a call once you have a working truck?
Hope that wasn't too rude....
