I had a flat yesterday. I stared at it for a minute and muttered "bummer" to myself, emptied the truck of the van so I could get at the spare... then had second thoughts.
I walked back toward the building I had just left and found two men.
"Who would like the opportunity to change a tire?" I asked.
Both jumped up right away and hustled to my rescue. One grabbed the jack, the other the lug wrench and off they went.
I suspect if I'd asked these men's wives (or any of my other female friends) for help, they would have helped by pulling out cell phones and rounding up a guy for the job.
Not that women can't change a tire. I believe I could. I just don't want to. It would be a hardship to me. The guys, though acted like it was no trouble at all.
Thanks, Jay and Alex. You're a blessing.
