Several years ago, I was in Memphis working and we were on the way back to our hotel in Germantown from Beale Street. We got pull over because the driver, my boss, dropped his cell phone and as he was going to pick it up, he swerved and almost him a light pole. Once the cop looked at his liscense, he said "Mr -_-_ please step out of the vehicle." My boss looked at him, then looked at the guy in the front seat, then back at the cop and said "You mean out there?" At that point I thought we were in trouble.
So he gets out and walks to the back of the vehicle with the cop to start the sobriety test. The cop asks "Do you have any physical impairments?" and to this my boss replies "I have on new sandals. Does that count?" At that point, I knew we were all going to jail.
Turns out he passes the test and tells the cop that we are lost and we get an escort to our hotel courtesy of the Memphis PD.
If the birds are flying great, but if not, enjoy the time; at least you're not at work.
