2wks ago we got a notice that our road was going to be re-tarred and that during this period we needed to park out of the the area (4 blocks from my house). So last night we parked our cars out in tim-buck-two, so we didn't get blocked in in the morning.
So this morning I started to take my little walk to my car and thought this was going to be nice to get some fresh air--NOT. While on my little walk i had to keep my skirt from flying up and showing all the little workers my undies and as i started walking by them while spraying their hose i got some substance on me that I thought was water. I got into my car and started eating my toast and realized I had "black crumbs" on me. So I went to brush them off, but they wouldn't come off. I remember as I was walking by that I had to wipe my face because whatever they were spraying had sprayed me in the face. I looked up in the mirror and behold I had been tarred!!!! I had several tar speckles all over my face, neck, inside my ear, on my shirt, legs and shoes!!!!! At this point I was on my way to work already running late so i had to press forward. Got to work and washed my face or should I say SCRUBBED my face and had to explain to people why I had tar all over my shirt. Thankfully we didn't have any patients and I only had to work a half day. But let me tell you I was SO ANGRY!!!! I called the company and they are going to compensate for the damaged goods :) but still....GURR!

STILL can't believe this, but I am SO glad they are compensating you. And you're right, I don't think very many people can say they've been tarred, once in a lifetime story right? ;)
Of course that would have to happen as you are going to work and running late! They should compensate you!
