[Strider]

Well, it's not just the young that should know a thing or two about how to maintain an automobile. Once at work a fellow co-worker's car wouldn't start and ask me if I would jump start his car, I had an appointment and was running late as it was. Another co-worker (around 50 years old) said he would do it, I don't know why but I ask him if he ever jump started a car (He didn't look like the type that would work on a car), he said no he never did. I told him how to do it and said to him "If you're still unsure get someone else to do it, for it could be dangerous or damage the car if done incorrectly", but he said he would have no problem in doing it. The next day Doug (The person who's car wouldn't start) came over to me shaking his head and told me that his car was in the shop, for you guessed it the car was incorrectly jump. He told me he crossed the wires and the battery blew up and caused a whole bunch of electrical problems in his car.
