I go out and DO the actual calls that are dispatched to us, AMA! (Roadside Assistance)

lol oh boy...

I've been running since late October/early November of last year, give or take a few weeks.

As for my worst call, I have just one that sticks out in my mind. It was fucking scary... So here goes.


I got a call for a tire change (at least, that is what the club told me)

I pull up to the location and it is LITERALLY in the middle of nowhere.

I mean.. The neighbor's house is literally a pieced-together mobile home, and I've got my wife with me in my passenger seat. She decided that she had nothing better to do that day so she wanted to ride with me and "see what I do" first-hand.

So anyway..

This woman told dispatch that she had a flat tire, and said that she needed the donut/spare put on. Not a problem.

So.. I pull up in the driveway.

The woman is standing next to her car with an air compressor hose in her hand.

So I get out, and as I'm walking up, I ask what's wrong. She tells me the tire is flat.

Ok cool.. That is exactly what dispatch told me. Not a problem at all.

So I get my floor jack out of my vehicle, I get my impact wrench out, and I get ready to jack this car up and change the tire.

Before I can even get started, she tells me "oh, no! The tire just needs to be filled up with air, I don't need you to put the spare on!"

So.. here I am, thinking "WTF...."

This lady has the air hose in her hand, and she could obviously fill up the tire on her own..

So I ask WHY she called and requested roadside assistance if she has access to an air compressor and is able to fill up the tire herself.

Her response was fucking ridiculous.

"My husband is in there and we are fighting, so instead of filling it up myself I called roadside assistance. As soon as you pulled up he asked who was out there fixing my tire, so I told him that you were my boyfriend."

Now.. keep in mind, I am in the middle of fucking NOWHERE.. On this man's property.... WITH MY WIFE IN THE PASSENGER SEAT OF MY VEHICLE.

I. Was. PISSED.

I told her please ma'am, do not do that. I am here to fix the tire, nothing more.

She replies "Oh, he's a giant pussy. He won't do nuthin!"

I tell her "Miss, I don't know you and I don't know your husband. I would really appreciate it if you kept me out of this."

She just laughed, telling me how much of a pussy this guy was even more.

So I told her point blank, I am here to do a job & my dash cam has been recording the entire time.

So if he were to believe you for some reason when you said that I was your boyfriend (even though my fucking WIFE is in the front seat and clearly visible), I would be forced to defend myself. However, I would prefer it didn't come to that so PLEASE STOP playing these childish games just to try and make this man jealous.

Now.. the guy never came outside, thank god.

But that was seriously the absolute WORST call I have ever been sent on. It was fucking scary as shit man.
