When I was in high school, a classmate said he made a turn in a neighborhood, the wheel came off, and he ended up in some guy's yard. The homeowner was standing there and said something like "You look like you could use some help there."

Yesterday I went somewhere to get help on my résumé and a fellow walked in and told some story about a wheel flying off of a car on the freeway and rolling up the exit ramp. They knew they had a problem, so they were driving to the mechanic.

Then he told them he was looking for help starting and running a bakery and they had him talk to me.

I never finished my résumé. I never filled out an application. I just talked to him and he felt that I could follow directions.
