Some You Win

Forgot to tell you....

Last week Alex had a car accident. He wasn't hurt and neither was the other party, just a little shook up, but unfortunately, it was Alex's fault. He had been working all the hours God sends and a few more that he didn't, he was knackered and coming home very late at night. Stopped at a traffic light, and then when he saw a green light, which he assumed was his as it was pointing in his direction, pulled out into the junction, but unfortunately, it wasn't his light, and an oncoming car slammed into the side of him. He has a company car, so gave the man his details, and when he went into work the next time, informed them of what happened. Alex was due to get a bonus in his wages for all the work he had put in building, setting up, manning and then dismantling the stand they had at a recent trade show (the reason why he was tired and ran the light in the first place)but because he backed into a wall whilst in France in summer had already had his allocated one claim for this year. So his bonus went to pay for the excess. If he hadn't been building the stand, he wouldn't have been out late and run the light, but we still wouldn't have any money, but Alex might have got some sleep.
