So I have been trying to sell Magic the Gathering cards the last year. I finally had a solid order to sell off of approx $1,500. I don’t make a ton of money and that was going to be a great cushion on my bank account. Well, because I didn’t want the box to get messed up before leaving and packing things into my vehicle, I set it on top of my car. Finished putting everything in the car and took off. I arrived at fedex confused, “oh I must’ve left them on the counter.” I did not. I pulled onto the main road in front of my house and saw, to my horror, the box of cards in the turn lane, crushed, scattered, wet from rain. Fuck my life. I NEVER set shit on top my car. Today, I did and now I can’t do several of the things I planned to with the money I had expected in a week.
TL;DR: I left my $1,500 shipment of Magic cards on the roof of my car and they got destroyed in the middle of the road because I’m dumb.
