Default Younger & Dumber

Summer of 1985, student field operator for an oil company in SE Sask. Clipped a doe with my truck, busted headlight bezel and grille, everything else worked fine. Happened on the same day I got severely stuck (2WD) and overflowed my water tanks (skim of oil goes a long way in the breeze).

Funny part, the office had gone 1,479,000 kms without a PVA and everyone knew there was a big celebration if we hit 1.5MM (a company record).

Other funny part, the safety guy, located in Estevan (~120 kms away) was on site 45 mins after I called it in. Eventually determined to be non-preventable...I wasn't asking too many questions.
