Oh my gosh, I got so sidetracked over the weekend I forgot about my 75 Days, from http://www.marcandangel.com/ ...
Today, I’m the head janitor at an investment firm in L.A. Since the
engine in my truck failed four months ago I’ve been without a vehicle.
In some cities this might be okay, but in the L.A. sprawl with subpar
public transit, it’s been difficult. The CEO, who is usually hard on
everyone and emotionally removed from any personal issues his employees
have, overheard a phone conversation I was having with my wife in which I
was apologizing for not spending enough time with the family due to the
long public transit commute times. Ten minutes later, he caught me in
the hall and handed me a set of car keys. “The new executive company
cars arrived. One of them is for me. But it sounds like you need it more
than I do. I have another set of wheels. It’s parked out back. It’s
yours for as long as you need it.”
