    One way to get a new cell phone

    So I stop at a hvac distributor this morning to pick up a couple things for a crew I'd be running into later and my hands are full, so I set my company cell phone on the roof of the car to get the stuff loaded in. Have to go inside to get an invoice and BS for a few minutes. Come out and totally forget about it. I make it through town , but as I get up to highway speeds it happens. I hear a soft clunk clunk on the roof and in that instant I remember that the phone is up there. To late. I look in the rearview mirror in time to see it majestically soaring through the air before plummiting down to rt 119...in front of an unmarked state trooper no less. I quickly pull off the road as does the trooper. He gets out smiling and tells me " I don't think it made it. The first couple cars missed it, but I'm pretty sure I saw it get hit" Oh yes, he did. I collect the six or so pieces of my two month old company provided phone and walk back to the car knowing full well I'll now be a few hundred dollars poorer. Could have been a better day ( although I know it could have been alot worse, so I'm thankful for that)

    Never tell them (company) and when people keep bitching cause you don't return their calls, give them an attitude and say you never got the messages.
