Do not feel too bad.. I recall years ago,,, I worked the 10mile Split Time point on the Widsor/Detroit international marathon (I am a communactions officer at selected events like that.. We line the route with radio operators who can call for help if you need it or report selected other things to mission control (The start or finish line, also known as NET CONTROL in our lingo).
Then it's off to St. Mary's Greektown for church... I got there early so am sitting in the car reading the newspaper (Remember those?) One of the assoicate pastors is helping a parishioner start his dead battery car (They have multiple Masses every Sunday) I noticed something.. odd.. but it took a bit to register... After they got it started I ask the driver to pop the hood again.... Yup, no fan belt, that's why his battery was dead, no fan belt.
Sticker still in the window of the brand new car.
I sent him to the most expensive repair place I knew of (And I might add the closest) and read a bit more paper. then went to Church.. They still say Mass in Latin there.. I kind of miss that.
I don't understand this....maybe I'm just reading it wrong. Were you taking pride in sending him to the expensive shop or was it the closest that just happened to be the most expensive? Hopefully the latter of the 2 because it's pretty crappy to kick someone when they're down. I'm no saint but I would at least not kick them. I laid in the parking lot of a wal mart once for a couple hours swapping a starter on a minivan for someone that I didn't even know just because I knew how to do it and it was a woman with a couple of small kids with her. The easiest thing would've been to just send her somewhere but the right thing was to really help them out.
