The universe really hates me.
So today is one of those typical autumn day here in Canada… it's cold, it's windy… and it's piss pouring rain out. Well Murphy's law has it that my windshield whippers motor on my car would just say Fuck You and stop working in the middle of the freaking rainstorm while I was driving on the highway!!! YAY!!!!
I couldn't turn back at that point, so I had to make my way to work like this, with wind and rain lashing at my car and seeing barely 2 feet ahead of me with my hazard lights on and cars zooming past me! Thankfully there's a small garage right next to work, so I left my car there, they'll have a look at it as soon as possible and hopefully it won't cost me an arm and a leg.
I'm wet, I'm shaking, I'm infuriated. Seriously Universe… FUCK YOU TOO!

***EDIT***
Just got call from garage... gonna cost 170$ to repair... it's not the motor but something else that makes the whipper arms move... fucking great.
***EDIT#2***
so the bolt that holds the thing that is broken in the car is stuck in the whippers motor and they're fighting to get it out… if all fails, he'll install me a used motor and linkage for the same price... FML. So until then I'm stuck at work with no means to get home.

thankfully you managed to get to work safely even in the middle of that rainstorm
Would using public transportation like a cab or a bus be an option for you in your area if a friend, family member, neighbor, or coworker cannot offer you a ride?
