Are there no good samaritans left?

I just had a tire blowout from the inside rim. I didn't know what was happening, so I pulled into a busy grocery store parkinglot, taking the nearest two parkingspots so that I'd have room to check out/replace my tire. As I was doing so, atleast 30-40 people passed by me either on foot, or in their vehicles. The only person who noticed me was a guy in a modified pickup who honked and swore at me for taking up two spaces.

Everyone else just looked the other way so they wouldn't feel guilty.

I love this place. -_-

That's life in the big city.

And it's also why I have AAA. Well, that and generous parents.

Sad thing is I have roadside assitance, but it only works on major roads in Utah, where I bought my car. -_-

Not particularly useful in a Safeway parking lot in a Seattle suburb.

It doesn't help any, but I almost never stop to help people because I'm always worried about being robbed and/or killed. That's what happened to Ennis Cosby, eh?

I'm sorry you were stuck on the road. :(

It's okie, I was more mad at the guy who honked at me because I was taking up a second space.

It was a battle won, because last time I tried to change a tire I couldn't lift it to put it on. This time I did it all on my own.

It was a "woman power" moment.

You are a very powerful woman. Now we can quantify it. :D *proud*
