My mom called to make a reservation to use a company car for a business trip. The response was something along the lines of "you can if one's available then". She thought it was an odd answer as she was booking it quite far in advance, so it was unlikely anyone else had already reserved it. Later she talked to someone else, and the information she received explained everything.
The company had hired a new person to be the courier for the organization. The person had been texting and driving (illegal in our state and downright dangerous of course), caused an accident, and totaled the car. Did she get fired? Of course not. They instead let her use the other company car to perform her duties. Any guesses what happened next? If you said "she was texting and driving and wrecked that car too", you are correct. They did finally fire her after that.
