Feeling so freaking embarrassed right about now, such a silly thing to do! Not only am I not supposed to be here tonight but now I can’t leave!

In life we must recognize the things at which we are not efficient at so we may work on them. If we do not spend the energy actively focused on bettering these things they will often pop up when least expecting them...

Tonight is one of those nights things seem to be popping up on me 🤦‍♂️ I got to work and headed into the building. I realized the car in the parking lot had been sitting there for a long while only after entering the building and setting off the alarm. Someone must have left there car at work for the night which tricked me into thinking someone was already inside. I am still a new employee here but I can imagine after this they might feel inclined to get me a security code 😅

Never been good at scheduling myself or keeping track of days even, struggle sometimes keeping track of day vs night. Though I struggle to keep my days straight somehow I manage to get by without complications in most cases by using the tools available to me. Scheduling apps and relentless alarms are my friends when it comes to keeping my life in order.

After talking to the alarm company then sitting for an hour waiting to talk to the police I figured I would write this post about the situation which lead me to discover the next thing popping up on me 😅 how fitting this prompt of “lame” turned out to be for my evening! I wrote the first two sentences of this post before even clueing in that my situation was about to get worse.

I walked back to the end of the driveway where I had left my car, hopping in and turning the key to only get a click. “Are You Kidding Me!” I yelled at the top of my lungs. With not a soul around I had left my keys in the ignition thinking it would be safe and it was. What I did not account for was leaving the ignition on for an hour on this freezing night 🤦‍♂️

So my car is dead, almost out of gas also which is why I wasn’t able to idle while waiting for the police. “Alright I’m prepared for this!” I thought to myself while dialling *222 for BCAA Roadside Assistance. I pay for this service just for situations like these yet there was one further thing about to pop up on me and it was the icing on my Lame Cake.

Just as I connected to operator and told them my name my phone powered off.... no businesses open... no pay phones... no charging block for my phone... “No No No I am not going back in there!” I muttered as walking around my car racking my brain for any alternative only to conclude...

This Is So Lame Sauce

I did end up going into my work place for a second time setting off the alarm again and speaking with the alarm lady Jen. Lol we had a good chat I won’t soon forget and she said that she won’t be forgetting me anytime soon either!

Then called BCAA whom had a good laugh at my situation also, calling it a perfect storm.

Talked to the police a second time whom basically pulled up and looked at me stupid and drove away laughing after I stated my situation of needing to use the phone to call for a jump.

Plus the tow truck driver, I swear he was stoned(no judgement just observation), just couldn’t stop chuckling at me 🤪 it’s a god damn good thing I know how to laugh at myself!

Lesson of the story: I can either laugh with them or stand against them and laughing is always a whole lot more enjoyable 😝 besides I recognize how ridiculous the situation became... it’s the whole reason I’m writing this post 😅

At least there was a phone.
I had the same once too. Couldn't call road service (well I could but they kept asking all the info and about my entire life although I have a number, telling me the road didn't exist blah blah blah).../battery empty. Thank you stupid road service.
I have a jumpstarter now and am prepared.

Road service took all their "emergency phones" of the road and payphones are history even way longer. Personally, I find it an a-social thing to do. It is forcing people in buying an expensive phone, counting on the fact it is always fully charged/no old battery and people have calling credit as well (or paid their bill).
The police will not show up if you call them, no one will stop and help you and there's a small chance you can borrow someone's phone.
