[QUOTE="barnyard, post: 638745, member: 13921"] My fave cell phone experience....... One winter Thursday, we had a heavy snow forecast. We were told to deliver everything in town, but to use discretion in rural areas. The north/south roads were not horrible, but the east/west roads were. I got to a crossroads about 3/4 of a mile from a farm and called them. Me, "I am here, if you want your package, I can wait for 5ish minutes and you can meet me here, otherwise, we will get it to you tomorrow." Her, "When did UPS start hiring pusillanimous that cannot drive in snow." Me, "The road in front of your place looks like an ungroomed snowmobile trail, if you can make, I'll be here." Her, "I'll be right there." I could see the house and saw her get a car and her pickup stuck in their driveway. I saw her walk back to the house and called. "You gonna make it here?" Her, very, very sheepishly, "Uh, I guess there is like a foot of snow in front of our house, so probably not, but I guess I do appreciate you trying." To the OP. Good on you for trying. [/QUOTE]
