So I'm just sitting in a ditch, contemplating life.

[mrjarrell]

Might try joining AAA, OP. They respond fairly fast.

 

[ArcadiaGP]

Happy you are out and unhurt. How about the vehicle?

No damage, just got stuck. Didn't hit anything.

Dude, it's winter. It's slick. You are the gozillionth person stuck in a ditch this morning. Even from a police standpoint it's taking wreckers 2-3 hours to pull folks out if we call them. It's not State Farm's fault.

It's not even that, I understand there might be an elevated level of slide-offs... but telling me at 8:30 one is on the way... then it's cancelled an hour later... then another is on the way an hour later... then it cancelled an hour later... usually needing me to call them so they can look into it and see where the truck is and find out it's cancelled.... It's just not a pleasant experience.

It's not as if a State Farm agent is the one operating the tow truck, either. It's a contract with a company. Or several companies. Chances are good that the tow company handles calls like that for half a dozen companies.

Crap happens. Sometimes it's crap crap - sometimes it's inconvenient crap. Be thankful that you didn't get yourself into crap crap.

You know, I have state farm and they'll also reimburse you. The one time I needed a wrecker, I called a wrecker and just sent in the bill to be reimbursed.

Good thing it wasn't tomorrow, ditches will be full of water.

 

[Indy_Guy_77]

I hate crap crap.

Indeed.

We went through a bout of crap crap late last September. Still dealing with the "aftermath" from that one.

 

[CitiusFortius]

Total time in ditch: 4 hours. Wrecker came by and pulled me out, finally.

Just... amazing. Might need to switch from State Farm after this shoddy service

AAA - every year when it's time to renew I think "why? I didn't even use it last year" Then I think "what if I end up in a ditch on the warmest day of the winter" - It sure would be nice to have them on the phone.

Don't mean to make fun, glad you're out, hope your vehicle is good

karma......

I lurve the chocolate covered ones. They're always the square ones in the assorted box.

 

[Birds Away]

...but sometimes they look the same as the coconut ones and that's just crap crap crap.

 

[JetGirl]

...but sometimes they look the same as the coconut ones and that's just crap crap crap.

No, they don't... If you pick them up and look underneath, you can CLEARLY see the cocogross ones have a hole poked through the chocolate that exposes the nature of the assortedness's assortedness.

 

[JetGirl]

Well...at least if somebody else got to the box first.

 

[SaintsNSinners]

You could be in good hands with allstate.... Or you could save a bunch of money on your insurance by switching to reverse and driving off

And where were you, um, a few DECADES ago with this little piece of information missy?

 

[rhino]

I have AAA. I had a blowout on I-74 just east of the new Brownsburg exit. The weather was fine. When the guy got there, I had to help him. He didn't know how to lower a spare on a Chevy pickup truck.

Why did I pay if I had to help???!!!

 

[JetGirl]

And where were you, um, a few DECADES ago with this little piece of information missy?

Um... probably starting high school grad plans.

 

[Birds Away]

Thanks for all the coconunt nightmares I've had to suffer through in the interum.

It's a good way to ruin a perfectly good chocolate cake, too.

Edit: Coconut should be banished from the Earth. It's the only thing I hate about watching Survivor...except the parts where they talk.
