I don't think I want to see a dead deer right now, ew! But thanks anyway, I hope Jenni is okay and I wonder to myself why the auto manufacturers, even overseas haven't developed a gizmo yet like the one I've described. Oh yeah, just thought of a good reason...random acts of god are GOOD for the motor vehicle industry?

Jenni, that sucks...hopefully your car isn't too messed up. I wonder what happened to the deer...

One night, some of my former co-workers were driving up here from MD to help us out the following day at our office in Trenton. The driver had just bought a brand new 2001 Jetta (this was in October 2000). Smacked right into a deer on I-295 north, near Burlington, NJ. Tore the shit out of the car...I told the driver to file the incident through the company's insurance as opposed to his own. The company was none too pleased with my suggestion. :)

Sycamore,
 

whatever became of your friend afterwards? Was there a settlement of some sort? Just curious with a smile;)

Unfortunately, I don't know...I was asked to pack up my office a couple of weeks later.

NO!
 

Not you? Now that REALLY sucks. When I finally get paid you are going to help me spend my money I hope; )

I can do that. :)

That was the first job I had when I moved to Philadelphia...transferred there from our office in MD. Unfortunately, so did my boss from MD...what a fuckface.

I have had supervisors like that too, it doesn't seem to matter where you go. The fun part is getting rid of them! All you have to do is help the mafia get filthy rich and then sit back and let them do the rest. Sometimes we get a new manager at work and I groan under my breath to a few hard working co-workers, "rrrr, don't tell me WE have to get rid of another manager". Nine out of ten times the manager really isn't all that bad and is just doing his/her job.
