Rick has a union meeting today after work. He's the financial secretary, so he has to give a monthly report. He worked on his report last night, got it printed out and stuck it in his file. Well, he left for work this morning and, as soon as he left, I saw the folder on the table; he had forgotten it. So I texted him right away, "Union folder on table!" But I knew that if it was only one text, he'd never bother to stop the truck, but would just check his phone when he got to work. Too late to come back home for the folder. So it went like this:
Rick
Union
Folder
Is at
Home.
Warning!
Warning!
Turn
Truck
Around
NOW

He must have gotten 12 texts from me....all one word texts. So when his phone started "Droid" "Droid" "Droid" "Droid" "Droid" Droiding off the truck seat, he knew something was up. Pulled over, saw the texts, thought "Oh crap!" and turned the truck around. Till he got back up the driveway, I was standing at the front door with his folder in my hand. He gave me a sheepish grin, said, "Thanks for saving my butt" and left again.
Actually, I wasn't saving his butt. I was saving my own. I could see it......I would have had to bring the folder with me to work and then take it up to him over our lunch break. And I didn't want to have to do that.
I love the man dearly, but he'd forget his head sometimes.
And you do what you have to do!
