Since there is a drive formatting on the bench I have a few minutes to share something. Our office manager had a wreck Friday. She was inside a business when the PA system blurted 'the owner of a white chevy van needs to go to their vehicle'. She went outside to discover that an 80 year old lady had backed into her van and it had moved forward and hit the car parked in front of her. The lady was hysterical and so upset; she thought she was in drive instead of reverse. 'Our office manager' forgot about her vehicle, the damage and proceeded calming the elderly lady down. After further inspection the van was found driveable and 'our office manager' tried to contact the son of this woman on her own cell phone and then decided to drive the lady home since no one could be reached by phone. They talked on the way about her deceased husband, how she had moved next to her children when he passed and even stopped to look at flowers in the garden upon arriving. This was not a short trip, she drove about 30 miles out of the way to help this lady and ease her strife. It makes me feel good to know there are some good human beings in the world. I am being sued for $48,000 because a lady was driving on the wrong side of the road and hit me 1.5 years ago. There are witnesses and pictures. I asked her three times if she was ok and she replied yes everytime. Friends of mine actually pried her fender away from her tire so she could continue on her journey home. She went to the doctor a week later and missed no work. There were no tickets issued. All this because an ambulance chasing attorney thinks he can just bark like the dog he is and the insurance company will pay him to quit his howling. They probably will. So, when our office manager embraces this elderly lady and seeks to comfort her because it is the right thing to do, I rejoice....
