She knew she'd ran over some flak and by the time I got there, it was flat, but, she hadn't driven on the sidewall, and so, just needed a plug.
I flipped the donut on fast, so she could quick get to the nearby Discount tire for the repair before they closed at 6. Luckily her car had a donut and jack.
Emma was a hoot to chat with for a couple minutes, and got a kick out of my advice to photograph the flat tire so she could use the photo as an excuse if she ever was running late to work (I posted that years ago)
I was once late for work due to my own stupidity, but as soon as I parked nearby, I've put my sleeves up and rubbed my hands on one of my tyres. As soon as I entered the office and my boss looked angry at me I said sorry and asked to wash my hands first as I had a flat tyre. Best excuse ever.
