You let a friend drive your car, but he ended up on a slippery road and put it in a ditch. It didn’t help that he had a bunch of crazy backseat drivers constantly beating on him to turn left.
But, you’re offered hope. The on-board service, AcornStar, sends out some union flunky in a tow truck to pull your car out of the ditch. But, you first have to advance him a Benjamin. Fortunately you took Spanish in 7th grade, you begin to think as he tells you that he needs it for shovels or something. Oh, and you’re forced to sign up for some insurance, too. You wonder if that’s even legal.
So, the tow truck man takes your money, pulls your car back on the road…and takes your wheels?! He explains that you’re probably rich enough to buy some more, so he’s sharing them with some friends in Chicago.
Hold on. Now, you’re worse off than ever…your car is completely undriveable, you’re in debt, and are stuck with worthless insurance and this nut. And, it doesn’t help that you’ve just been laid off in an economy that is getting worse.
It’s obvious that the tow truck driver had no training or experience and did even more damage to your car…and, the license in his cab looks forged.
You complain to him, but he fires back that you should have traded in the clunker when you had the chance, chastises you for not driving a hybrid, blames all his problems on your old friend who drove the car, and now he won’t even give you back your keys and says that you’ll thank him when they build high-speed rails through your neighborhood.
You cannot believe that anyone hired someone that bad and dishonest. He had to have lied on his job application.
So, you ask yourself if you are better off now than you were four hours ago, and the answer is that you are worse off, much worse. It’s time to bring in someone who is qualified and to get rid of this clown. You’ve learned your lesson.
So, you consider alternate services, but this time, you know to check credentials first. You can’t risk another four hours like this nightmare.
