(26,627 posts)Im not lying. He was really singing.
I was hauling ass through town and didnt even see him. Late for a meeting.
I was in a brand new expensive car wearing an expensive suit.
He went back to his car with my EXPIRED drivers license. I figured I was in trouble.
He came back and gave me my expired license back and told me to slow down.
This was a south Chicago suburb. In the next down over where I worked I used to look out my office window watching black people with 10 fingers on the fender all day long.
It was especially disheartening because a lot these people were most likely on their way to work at the big shopping malls two towns over. It was a pretty heavily traveled route from the south side of Chicago.
Oh and we hired, for security, a lot of these cops outside my window. They were racist fucking pigs.
