My friends often ask me, "Wilt, why do you have to try to do everything yourself? Why can't you let somebody else help you sometime?" Well, 'just had the reason reconfirmed. 'Went to get 20 lb. propane cylinder refilled. As I stood at back of the car with trunk open, and clerk coming toward me with the filled cylinder, I thought, "I should ask him to just put the cylinder down and I'll put it in the trunk." I hesitated, though, and as he arrived at the car, he swung the cylinder way up and over into the trunk and let it land on edge of the steel ring mounted on underside of it. I heard the board that's directly beneath the trunk carpet and on top of the spare tire break with a resounding CRACK! Clerk didn't seem to notice, probably has no idea what he did and doesn't give a damned. Shonuff, I can clearly see the impression/dent in the trunk floor and feel the weakness in the broken board. If I had insisted on loading it myself, the floor in my 124 would still be completely intact. Several times before, when I've gotten the cyl refilled, I have locked the car and arrived back at it after the clerk had filled the cylinder and left it sitting at back of car; I'll make damned sure to do that henceforth.
