Episode 351 - National Watermelon Day
/In a shocking turn of events, Andy and Big Cray Duke have gotten together to keep the streak alive for another week. Taking us to 351. This was completely of their own volition. They're talking about;
The Modern Popularity of Jeeps
Pulling Trailers
People Who Don't Close the Copy machine
Jeeps are a national past time, these days those the manufacturer has lost all sense of purpose. It used to be a given that a jeep had a four wheel drive selector. Not anymore! Now a jeep is just another boxy SUV running out the clock on the popularity of a brand while delivering zero of the perks. Sure the Wrangler can still be stripped to have almost the appearance of a jeep, but deep down, it's just your mom's suv headed for soccer practice. You might as well be driving a mini van you giant loser.
It's said no good deed goes unpunished, so of course when Andy seeks out to do a simple favor it becomes a complete day of work. Why would you expect the owner of a trailer to maintain the trailer, when there are people lining up to borrow it that are far better suited to make sure it's in proper working order. A set of tie down straps, a spare tire, a trailer jack, and an air compressor are just a jaunt to Harbor Freight away. Spend a hundred bucks, no big deal, at least the trailer is free.
And speaking of free, you know what else is free? Closing the copy machine. I get it, I've left stuff on the scanner bed all the time. I recently found a document on a scanner that was placed on the scanner sometime in 2021 before my Boss left her old position at the theater to go work elsewhere, it is now 2023 she has returned to take the big chair and we found it. Meaning for two years, nobody used that scanner. If that had been open for two years it would be, COMPLETELY UNUSABLE. Close the scanner, it's not hard.
All of that plus a new holiday, and finally some resolution with voicemails from Mom.
