so i was leaving work and i realized i had a flat tire. it wasnt flat flat but it was really low. i changed it out for my spare only to find out my spare is flat -_-. i was debating if i should just drive it to costco down the block just to fill it up, but i didnt want to take the risk and i called AAA. i told them i only needed air, i dont need a tow truck. they told me a company called bob's towing will be at my location in 30 mins. as i waited, it starts to sprinkle. thank goodness i have AAA right?! WRONG!! some guy calls me about 20-25 mins later asking me where i was. he said he was in the parking lot in the corner. i told him i was right where i told him ill be. i didnt see him so i figured he didnt even try to find me as the parking lot i was in wasnt even big, although it did circle around 2 building like an 8. my car was practically the only car in the parking lot too as everyone has left from work. anyways, he finally finds me a few mins later and he sees my tire is flat. he ask me what i needed. so i explained that my tire was flat, i changed to my spare and that was flat as well. he said, "o. you going to need a tow truck." then i asked him if he can just fill my tires up and he said no, it would be better to get a tow truck now because it will only be using 1 credit from AAA anyways. so i asked him if he can even fill up my tires because that is what i called AAA for. he said yes. so i asked him why he doesnt just fill me up and he said "well your tires is going to go flat again anyways if i fill it up. you are going to need a tow truck to tow your car to get your tire repaired." i asked if there was even a tire shop opened at the moment and he said yes and pointed some random ass direction. i said "why dont you just fill me up and ill just drive over there real quick." he then says " so you going to stop by a tire shop on your way home?" i said yes and he just smirks at me like i was lying. im not really good at thinking quickly and i dont know what i was thinking, but i just decided to agree with him. i told him i would need a flat bed because my car is very low and he kind of just brushed me off. he then gets on his phone, and then gets in his car because there's a light rain now. i figured he was calling to get a tow out here for me. a min or 2 later he just takes off. doesnt even tell me anything. i dont even know if a tow is coming or how long it would take. i called AAA to see what was going on and they said they were never contacted and that maybe the guy called his company for a tow. well i didnt want to wait around to find out if he was coming back for me or not so i cancelled. i had to carry my tire to pepboys which, thankfully was only across the street and still open. they filled up my tire and checked it. they said they didnt find any puncture and it held it's pressure for 10 mins so the tire didnt look bad. i brought my tire back and now it's raining HARD and it's dark. went to get my emergency flash light in the car and of course, it is out of battery. it was really hard finding the jack point just by feel and hand tightening the lug nuts because my hands were numb from how cold and wet they were. i got off work at 530. didnt get finish for my car until 830.
the guy's name was hector. THANKS ALOT HECTOR!! i hope you get a flat tire tonight and your phone runs out of battery so you have to change your tires in the fucking freezing rain asshole!! read more
