Scrapped Friendship
I work for a gardening company and we have guys come and go on the regular. One guy we’ll call Mike (because that’s his name) worked for us for a while and built up a relationship with one of the customers, Wilfred (name changed to protect the innocent).
Anyway Wilfred was around 90 years old and a veteran of WWII, he was also completely blind. He had this old BMW sitting in his cluttered garage, the thing looked like it hadn’t moved in a couple of decades.
The car was his pride and joy in his younger days and he would tell anyone who would listen about how he used to drive himself and his wife to the local town to go dancing.
Anyway Mike told Wilfred he would take the car home and fix it up and bring it back when it was all sorted, it was decided if he could get the old girl purring again Wilfred would pay Mike a pretty penny. What Mike actually did was drive it straight to a scrap yard and sell it for scrap value. Story credit: Reddit / MyCalloutsAreGodly
