One morning, on his way back and in the pouring rain (...naturally...) the PM gets a flat tire. So now he's out, in the pouring rain, using the old wobbly bumper jack, etc, trying to change this tire. Needless to say he was not in a very good mood.

As he was struggling there the local paper boy comes rolling up on his Schwinn. Seeing this nice new model Pontiac and this distinguished gentlemen cussing and fussing trying to change the tire the young boy offers his services and asks "...do you work at the Pontiac plant?". Without looking up the PM answers affirmatively. "My dad works at that plant" the kid volunteers, and the PM turns to find.......the kid's bike is entirely...completely...utterly... covered with these "Star Chief" stars.

"Rrrreeaaalllllyyy...." he says, slowly, through gritted teeth, with all the civility he can muster: "...what's your Dad's name?"

(lol)

As it turns out, the Dad didn't get fired as promised - but he certainly did get a stern, lengthy talking to in the PM's office later that day....
