Holy crap. That's almost as much as a dentist.

Yeah, the UPS guy kept saying, "At least I'm getting paid for this." I imagine he got a lot of overtime that evening. He was extremely worried however, and very apologetic. He said if he damages or even scratches the truck too much, there could be a formal inquisition and he could loose his job that he had for a whopping 4 days. In turn that would make it much more difficult to find another job.

Once it was all over, he wanted to buy me a dinner or give me some gas money, which I of course turned down, even though my fuel light came on about half way through the ordeal. As best as I can tell, this life is pretty much meaningless unless you try to help people often, or at least occasionally.
