Car Troubles Part 2
Well, it happened. I was driving home from NY state yesterday because I decided to take a short ride. Noticed that my car was making clunking noises but I dismissed it as just the way I drive. As I got into town towards my parents house, the car just suddenly gave way. I pulled it over and tried to put it in park but nothing happened. Couldn't drive it either. The car started up but would not go into gear. So, I ran up the hill to find my mother and we went and got my father. Called AAA and they sent someone to pick up the car, though we had to push it away from the road and into a parking lot. It looks as if the transmission is shot. Located another transmission in my neighbor's yard but we aren't sure if it will fit my car or not, and not sure if it's still any good.This is a really bad time for something like this. I've depleted my savings account to pay for some bills that got held up in May. Also, I have no idea how I'm going to get to work until my car is repaired. I can take the bus to work and hopefully, my boss can find someone to give me a ride home. The problem is, the bus to work doesn't come until 7:30am and there's road construction. I would end up having to stay later at work, which really irritates me. It's quite frustrating. I'm really pissed off and I'm about ready to talk to the bank about a small loan to buy a better car. Might get this one fixed and then see about it because I cannot have cars that break all the time. I care too much about my job and hate going through this shit.
