Ok, so as most of you know, I drive tow truck for a living. The crazyness started when I was called to go winch someone out of the ditch. Normally an easy process. Well not today. Due to the massive snow storm we're cuttently sitting in, the PTO froze solid....couldn't engage it at all.

Ok, no problem I suppose, left the scene to go get the flatbed with the electric PTO. Start the truck up and realize the heater blower isn't working at full power...even though the switch is on full. Now i'm getting iritated 'cause now I only have a 6" section in the windshield that I can see through and it's not pushing any heat into the cab...so I'm frozen. :annoyed:

Get back to the scene where the truck is still in the ditch, open the door and the wind grabs it and nearly rips it off the truck. Now the driver door won't close 'cause the hinges are bent to rat sh*t.

Whatever....time to get this poor dude back on the black-top. Flip the switch to lower the air suspension and get my winch ready. Wait a second, where's the pully??? :icon_confused:

Sonofab*tch!!!

Call the office, let them know the last idiot driving the truck didn't put the pully back.

They send out the original truck I had....it sat in the shop for a while and the PTO started working.

YAY....the cavalry is here!

Pull the truck out of the ditch, do the paperwork, jump back in the flatbed, flip the switch to raise the air suspension....wait.....what's that hissing?? And why is my primary tank plummeting??

My god...you've got to be kidding me!! There's a frozen air valve on the truck now?? :shok:

Just as the park brake is about to kick in, the valve closes and the pressure comes back up.

Get back to the shop, spend 2 hours dealing with broken trucks.

Just before I leave.....here's the cherry on top for the night......I go to take a freaking piss and my cell phone falls out of my jacket pocket into the pisser....and I haven't flushed yet!! :bawling: :annoyed: :shok: :mad::temper::damnit1::pissedoff:


Rant...and hopefully, night over.
 
yeah, sometimes crap decides to come all at once against you. i had a day like that last week. i didnt even had breakfast when crap started, ended up having breakfast at 8 p.m.

dont worry, and take care of yourself lol
 
Sometimes you kick. some times you get kicked! Tomorrow is another day! I would defiantly get a new phone though! LOL
 
Today just sounds like one of those days where you get picked on buddy. Here's to a hell of a better day tomorrow! And hopefully a pissless phone.
 
sucks man hope it gets better for ya
 
Who is your wireless carrier? I have a few old ATT phones I'd send you for free.
 
So of all that stuff, was the phone the one that "pissed" you off the most?


:icon_rofl:
 
Thanks for the well-wishes and phone offers guys. lol. Had a (somewhat) better day today....if you can call working a 13 hour shift on your day off a better day.
