A man is angered when an arrogant officer of the law refuses to move his obstructive vehicle. When the man is late for work, a series of coincidences unfold that ultimately backfire on the officer.
A Grueling Job
A decade ago, he had an early morning shift at a fast-food restaurant, starting at 6 a.m. It wasn’t the greatest job in the world, but it was decent, and it paid the bills which is all he wanted.
An Early Start
The toughest part was that to make it on time, he needed to leave his house at around 4:45 a.m. It made socializing difficult as he needed plenty of sleep, and he was often exhausted by the end of the day.
Relaxed Management
His management was fairly lenient about the opening shift, allowing up to ten minutes of tardiness. It suited him perfectly, especially on the odd occasion that he slept through his alarm.
An Early Dilemma
However, one particular morning, he walked out at 4:45 a.m. to find a local police officer blocking his driveway with his car. He was far too tired to deal with any kind of issue at such an unpleasant hour of the day.
A First-Time Problem
While he’d encountered similar situations before, it was usually in the afternoon and easily resolved. He didn’t revel in the idea of conversing with anyone before starting his shift, much less a police officer.
A Simple Request
Typically, he’d ask the officer to adjust their position slightly to let him get in or out, and there would be no further issue. Problem averted! They were always friendly and apologetic about causing an inconvenience.
An Inconvenience
But on this occasion, the officer tersely informed him that he’d have to wait until he was finished. A major inconvenience! His ten-minute work leeway was useful, but the situation might take a while to wrap up.
Giving Evidence
Frustrated, he snapped a picture of the police car, sent it to his manager, and explained his impending lateness. His boss could hardly complain about an obstructive police car!
Panic Stations
A grueling forty minutes later, the police officer finally moved, and the man hurriedly drove to work. It was stressful, and he hadn’t even had a cup of coffee to wake him up yet!
A Rushed Start
He arrived fifteen minutes before the restaurant’s opening time and rushed to prepare for the day. It wasn’t a great way to start the day by any stretch. In fact, he had a real headache which frustrated him.
Demanding Customers
Diving straight in, he hastily brewed tea, gathered ice, and in his haste, nearly forgot to brew coffee for his manager who had asked him several times. He felt flustered, all because of his hectic morning.
A Coincidental Twist
As the restaurant’s opening time approached, their first customers walked in, which happened to be a group of local police officers led by their captain. It struck him as quite the coincidence.
Swapping Shifts
Some looked bright-eyed while others looked tired. However, they were all desperate for coffee; that much was apparent. It appeared that they were conducting a shift change.
The Guilty Party
To his surprise, one of the officers in the group was the same one who had blocked his driveway. He laughed to himself, amazed that such a coincidence could occur in less than an hour.
Waiting His Turn
The Captain ordered coffee, and he regretfully explained that there would be a five-minute wait due to his delayed arrival. He couldn’t help but cast a lingering gaze at the guilty officer as he relayed the information.
Sharing the Evidence
The Captain inquired about the reason, so he smugly pulled out his phone to show him a picture and detailed how one of his officers had obstructed his driveway for 45 minutes during a routine traffic stop.
A Formal Warning
In response, the Captain berated the offending officer in front of his peers and proclaimed that nothing short of a life-or-death emergency should ever block his driveway, particularly if it interfered with his morning coffee!
An End to the Problem
Following this incident, his driveway remained unobstructed, and the Captain always enjoyed his morning coffee without disruption. They ended up chatting more frequently and often laughed over the officer’s reaction to being publicly humiliated!
Power Shift
The best part was the officer’s arrogance in the first instance compared to the look of sheer horror when he was apprehended by his captain! That was an image that the man would never forget!
