The engineer-ish guy was hiilarious. The way he paced out the distance between cones and realinged one of them. I work with people like that.

I can understand a woman calling AAA for help *ahem* as in the commercial *xcuse me* (j/k) , but a dude calling AAA to change a flat ain't a dude.

if AAA could do it faster than me I'd call them. But by the time they'd get there I could be done and long gone.
