Having a scooter can be so inconvenient at times September 27, 2007

Posted by gmbmfb in : job, scooter , trackback

Today I was informed that they are shutting down the road I take to get to work for an undetermined amount of time (to re-pave a huge chunk of it). This is not good. Even if it’s only for a few weeks, it’s a major problem for me.

There is no other way to get to work on my scooter other than by this road … and sure I can catch a ride to work with a co-worker (who has a car and can go on the highway), but I’m really concerned about traveling to my 2nd job after work, which is also out in this area and is only accessible by this one road (or by going on the highway, which I can’t do). There are no buses that run this way, it’s way too far to walk, and I am not in a position to be calling a taxi to get to my 2nd job, and then to take another one all the way back into town to get home.

I need to be in the office right now to do the 2nd job, otherwise I wouldn’t care because I do a lot of work from home. But I have meetings to attend, documents to upload/download, large quantities of material to print, etc.

I can’t borrow the BF’s truck because I don’t know how to drive a standard … and my parents both use their cars during the week to get to their jobs. I guess I could rent a car, but that’s probably expensive.

CRAP.
