Call it being in the right place at the right time, for me anyway. I happened to look out the window of an otherwise empty conference room and saw these guys helping their partner out of a tight spot in the parking lot.
Then they were left in a difficult position with no one to help them out.
Fortunately the driver of the gray car came right out—I guess he was just getting donuts to go and not sticking around. This is understandable. Some places are conducive to thinking—I was in the conference room because I wanted a quiet place to write during my lunch break—and some aren’t. Once the gray car was gone the workers were able to leave without any trouble.
Then this happened. Who designed this parking lot, anyway?
I used to drive Freightliner ambulances and fire trucks; I know their struggle.

I would think fire trucks would be even more difficult to maneuver out of a doughnut shop parking lot. And I’ve seen Freightliner ambulances without knowing what they were called. Now I know, so thank you both for adding to my knowledge and taking on that extremely difficult job.
Very puzzling, Chris.
The parking lot puzzle is a curious one but at least a lot of people come and go so it’s not too much of a mystery how people get their donuts.
