Default Maybe I'm the last to know...

I was walking to my next meeting when corporate security caught me in the stairwell. A colleague said "that's him!". I had no idea what to think...

Turns out a grounds service pickup truck decided to take a wide turn about -- AND BACKED INTO MY S The driver-side door has a pretty decent-sized dent in it

Anyway, the driver was responsible and contacted security, who found me. We exchanged information and it should be fixed at no charged to me (thank goodness).

Lesson learned -- stop getting to work so early that I get the super-primo-parking spot next to the extra-wide turn area in the parking lot. Last comment: I got this message today from jimmij (at 2:44 pm -- I DIDN'T FIND OUT UNTIL ~3:35 pm!! )
Sorry to hear about the accident. Hope it is not too bad.
...go figure -- I'm the last to know.

only to grind dirt into open wounds -- the theme of today's "easy" crossword puzzle in the Post Dispatch was "words that end with DENT"!

Well, at least the came and found you. If there is paint work involved be sure and tell the body shop to blend away since it's no cost to you!

Any pics? by the way, I knew so early because Kelly listens to the security radio and heard it when they called it in. She was on the phone with me before they even ran your plates. Sorry to hear about the bad news.

sounds like a plan. I figure suzuka blue is about as hard to color match as silverstone.
