Default Thats me fooked

Just got to this old blokes house, to fit a new screen to his corsa. It took him 5 mins to answer the door, no shit, he must of been about 90

I asked him if i was at the right house as i couldn't see him bein able to drive. He said it was in the agare and he will get it out for me (the car that is)

Ok, so i went back to the van, got the new screen out, and began to prep it.

15 mins passed, and he just managed to get out the house, open the garage door and get in the car, 5 mins later he starts the car

He reverses out of the garage, and gets it a little wrong, ending up in his neighbours grvel board divide between the two properties, so he spend the next 10 mins movin backwards and forwards tryin to straighten up, his neightbout in jest looked at me and said "do you get paid danger money" i had to laugh, but the next bit didn't make me laugh as much

The old giffer had finally straightend up and was reversing towards me, infact, gettin a bit too close, holy shit, he's gonna hit the glass, so i grab the stand and drag it with the glass on 5 foot backwards, now pressed against the side of my van.

Then BANG

Its all a bit hazey from there on, suffice to say i was pinned to the side of my van by the car and the glass, just spent 4 hours down A an E. luckily for me, only my right knee is fooked, i managed to rip my trousers and spil a "quantity" of blood.

Off work methinks for a while now, cant walk

Worst thing is, the neighbour had to run over and tell the old bloke that he was pinning me to the van, as he was oblivious to what was going on

His licence needs revoking.....................

And he drives around clacton on a daily basis

Oh, well more time to sit at home and wait for car bits

ive got one simlar to that
this old dear come's into our work for some petrol , parks on the wromd side of the pump .
cant be bothered moving the car round to the other side as her friend is taking her out ,
gives me the keys ( she only want's a fiver of petrol ).
i say what do you want me to move it
no she says i'm leaving .
ok isaid why are we doing work on it
no she replys ( thats when i get the story about her friend )
she say's she will call back later
ok ( then we start taking bets if she will turn up ).
she does turn up pay for her petrol and then drive home in her hire car ( as she tore the back bumper of her's)
she sets off slipping the clutch on the limmiter in first ( by this point we are all on th floor crying )
30 mins later she walks back to the garage asking for her car keys??
we tell her she has allready taken the car after 10 mins of telling her this she goes away .
it turns out after she left the garage she went to the post office and left the car there , walked home and then came back to the garage thinking it was there
i tell you these people should not be allowed to drive
hope you're leg gets better by the way

I had a near miss like that the other day Till Silly old coooont tried reversing his car into the screen, grabbed it in time, but nearly lost me balance as wind caught the screen as I lifted it off tressle If I had lost balance tho I'd have gone a long way, his drive was WELL steep and rather long - all the way down to the main road

Best one I had I was doing a rear door window on this mk2 Sierra for this old boy, he had one of them walker things an that... Anyway I was having a slow day so went to the cafe first thing, then ot this job, halfway thru this door glass I couldn't take it any longer - brekkie weren't agreeing with me Knocked on his door, seemed like ages for the old guy to answer, apologised and asked to use his toilet, he said sure. Went up, let it go and was sitting there and heard this BUMP and "oof" from downstairs. Then silence. For about 3 mins. I thought he'd pegged it

He hadn't tho. Which was good cos he hadn't paid me yet

at least you have an age limit where you have to have a medical check and stuff. over here there is nothing. they keep driving at 20 mph, nearly blind at 95 years old or whatever. damn dangerous, particularly on the autobahn when you can be doing whatever speed you want
