He had a feeling it wasn’t going to be a good day the moment his alarm woke him.
He seemed to be in a rush from the moment he got up. Things simply kept going wrong. Eventually he was standing next to his car in the garage, checking the time. He could take a brisk walk to the bus stop or take the car. The bus would save him petrol, but the car was a more comfortable ride. He decided to drive to work. He had only gone a short distance down the street when the car sputtered and coughed, then completely conked out. Getting out, he lifted the hood, he couldn’t see anything that would have caused the problem. Closing the hood, he checked the time again. He stood, thinking about how he now had no chance of busing in, when a neighbour came out to see what was wrong. After hearing his tale of woe, he offered to help push the vehicle back to the driveway.
This was accomplished, and having thanked the man for his kind help, he put a call through to a local breakdown service. The man on the end said he could log the call and assured him of prompt service. He then proceeded to gather information, such as name and address, the location of the vehicle, number plate registration, type of vehicle and the time of it breaking down.
The man checked the time and said, “It must have been around ten past nine.”
The man taking the call said, “That can’t be right, sir. Could you check again?”
He took his phone out again and checked. “No,” he said, “within a couple of minutes, I’m sure it was ten minutes past nine when it happened.”
“But sir, it’s only eight-forty-five now, are you sure your watch is telling you the right time, sir?”
“Well, it’s a mobile phone, actually. These things operate on the world clock.”
“In that case, sir, I’m afraid the system won’t allow me to book you’re request.”
“Why not?”
He heard a sigh, followed by the man saying, “I’m sorry, but the software we use here won’t allow me to book a breakdown until it has actually happened!”
This was followed by a click.
