So, as I was working at my job, standing on the corner dressed up like the lovely mascot that I am, I was witness to one of the most ridiculous sights I've ever seen.
Today a Jeep Grand Cherokee PLOWED into a historical building on my little town's main street, thus collapsing the building and causing much damage and multiple fatalities. It's a big thing in a small town. My tax firm is on a corner of an intersection that had the closing on it, so only three of the four roads were usable and it being main street you can imagine there was a whole lot of traffic trying go down tiny side streets and much bumf*ckery going on.
This car comes out of nowhere, going twice the speedlimit and then SLAMS on the breaks in the MIDDLE of the intersection and starts trying to turn onto the closed portion of main street. Needless to say there are instantly two old guys in the way and the lady inside the vehicle is SCREAMING her fool head off that she HAS TO GET IN THERE!!!
Stupid Lady: I HAVE TO GET IN THERE, THERE'S NO OTHER WAYYYYYYY!!!
Old Man: You have to take O Street, it runs parallel, it's not that big of a deal, but you CAN'T GO DOWN THIS STREET.
SL: I HAVE TOOOOOOO!!! *Screaming I can't understand*
OM: THERE IS AN ACCIDENT, THE ROAD IS CLOSED!
SL: I DON'T CARE, LET ME THROUGH!
OM: Ma'am, there are people DEAD, you CAN'T GET THROUGH HERE, GET OUT OF THE MIDDLE OF THE INTERSECTION NOW!!!
She left then but seriously, SERIOUSLY, there's a giant red tarp being held up across the road so nobody gets to see the DEAD BODIES when they're pulled out, how in the hell does she think they're going to let her DRIVE down that road?!
And I thought I had it bad at MY job. Sheesh.
