opening night jitters

my first night working at hell's pizza almost ended in disaster. i was on my second or third delivery and i couldn't find the address. i was getting pissed because i kept turning around, and the address was nowhere in sight. finally, i remembered that there were two sections of the street and i was in the wrong section.

i turned left off the side street and i didn't stop because there was no stop sign, even though it's impossible for that street to have right-of-way. just as i turned, i saw a red sporty two-door car coming at me on the driver side. i gave my car more gas and heard him lock up the brakes. i looked in my rear-view mirror and saw the car had spun perpendicular to the road. luckily, it was a backstreet and not a main road.

amazingly, the driver never called to complain. in my 2 years of working at hell's pizza, i've had many close calls. this is the one that could have changed everything, and it's like it never happened.
