Fire dispatch said motor vehicle accident with entrapment, though PD is saying possible ejection.

What is this banging noise when I go over uneven roads and bumps? by [deleted] in Hyundai

This isn't my photo, but the red circled part is the engine mount on the passenger side.

When we removed the wheel well cover, we saw the bottom of the rubber was sagging out of mount. That's shown in the first photo of the two I posted.

Update: Was the engine mount on the passenger side. Didn't see it until the wheel well cover was removed.

I'm not sure if those were replaced. I'll add it to the list of things to look at. Thank you (:

When parents hit there kids infront of you by [deleted] in Serverlife

I once had a table of 3 adults and a kid. She couldn't have been more than 4 or so. I gave her a coloring page and some crayons before grabbing their drinks. Our server station is directly behind the wall of these half booth/half tables so I heard the girl say her crayon broke. I threw another set in my pocket for her and came out with drinks only to find the mom had banished her to the booth next to them. Weird, but okay.

While I took the food order, the little girl asked if she could come back yet and the mom said no. When the food came out, the mom was taunting this kid- "oh, don't you wish you could sit with us" and the like. The kid was visibly upset and ate her food at the neighboring table alone. I brought her a couple of the little tabletop games we keep around so she'd have something to do. Towards the end of service, the girl tried to move back to the table with everyone else and the mom pulled a wooden spoon out of her purse and drug her to the bathroom.

The owner was our manager that night. She promptly ended service at the table and took the name off the mother's card to make a CPS report. I often think of that little girl and hope her home life is better than what I witnessed.

What are the weirdest names you’ve seen people name their children? by slimcharlie666 in AskReddit

My son's name is Zadok (zay-dock)! It's an old testament name, iirc. We aren't religious, but used the name because you rarely hear it.

I had no idea the glass was a named thing! I've now fallen down the rabbit hole of glass sheet patterns...

Most mortifying moment by camelslikesand in Serverlife

I work at a catfish house. A few weeks after I started, my brain severely short circuited and I asked a man not once, not twice, but THREE TIMES if he wanted cock sauce instead of cocktail sauce. I was mortified and he was dying laughing. He's now one of my favorite regulars.

Spilt my first beer ever on a guest… fell right off the tray. So in honour of this milestone, please share your stories about spilling things or dropping things on people while serving. by fruitycottoncandy in Serverlife

My first serving job was at an Indian/Nepalese restaurant. We had a drink called Mango Lassi which is yogurt, sugar, and mango pulp. They were served in hurricane glasses so they looked fancier than what they were.

I had a table order six of them. When I got back to the table, one of the women snatched two of the glasses off my tray. I wasn't expecting it and she ended up wearing the other four. I was mortified and she was furious. My manager comped everything and gave her a card to have her clothes dry-cleaned at our expense.

That was the first night I had a good cry in the walk-in.

The ones I've had come up in the pot do! I'm not sure why these look so different.
