"Attn Dodderyoldfart's Headshit Boss
I wish to pass on my congratulations to the members of the work crew, especially Dodderyoldfart, for the efforts involved in saving the life of a travelling motorist on SH 3
While en route to a work site the crew observed a heavy vehicle parked adjacent to the highway with the driver slumped over the wheel. It had become apparent the driver had been stung by a bee and had an allergic reaction causing swelling and making it awkward for the driver to breath and eventually could not breath unaided. Doddery then performed CPR on the occupant until medical services arrived on the scene which with out much doubt saved the drivers life, this was the comment echoed by the medical staff on site.
We applaud this level of social conscience displayed, the value that they place on a human life, and the care they showed is to be commended.
Could you please pass on our thanks for their attentiveness to the needs of others and the exceptional efforts in saving the life of another motorist on the network.
Yours Faithfully

Well I hope this is as good as a "Get Out Of Jail Free" card.
Five minutes after this letter was delivered
I had a slight problem spreading some paveseal (ripped up road metal & bitumen). A glob hung up on the tray and next thing with infinite slowness and grace, my old truck lay down in the blackberry.
And I lay me down to sleep....

Tomorrow it will be Incident Forms, Accident Reports, and good natured jibes, could well cost a box of beer too....
