Oh, How I Wish That This Would Come True...

 

I wish for these things, without it happening. Old Man Crap is my burden.

OK, I'm going to tell you today's story.

We had to put the larger travel trailer into the shop building, for long term storage. This is always a doozy for me. He is terrible, let's leave it at that. It is finally in the correct parking location, and we have got it off the truck.

Then the old man drives the truck forward about 5 feet... He was not paying attention, and put the truck into reverse and got out.

All I saw was the truck in reverse with no driver...going backward into the trailer. The truck crashed into the trailer and pushed it all the way back into the shop wall.

I was yelling to him to stop the truck. Turn off the engine!

All I thought was, hell *&&^%%$##@! How much damage has been done? Is the wall still there? Is the back of the trailer crushed?

I got into the drivers seat and moved the truck forward. I had to re-hitch the truck to the trailer and pull it out of the wall.

I said that "you probably thought that it was in park, but it was really in reverse". This ended his whining about it was not his fault. :(

Honestly, I don't know about the damage. I'll look in the morning. Doesn't this just make your day.
