I’ve actually never been in jail, which I am proud of. Like not even the drunk tank for a night.
I was in the back seat of a cop car once, scared out of my mind…
My mom friends and I left our work Christmas party in a cab and decided to go through the McDonald’s drive-thru at 1 am cause, why not. Our employer gave out taxi slips to anyone leaving the party and not wanting (or able to) drive. So the ticker was ticking at the expense of our work, not our own purses.
While in the drive-thru, I noticed we were behind a police car. For some reason I decided that I need to get out of the cab and go knock on the window of the police car. The police officer rolled down the window and I said hey, just for a joke can you put me in the back of your car and scare my friends who are right there watching, and make it look like you’re arresting me?
Well he picked up right where I left off and before the words were out of my mouth he, in all seriousness, (and actually looking a little annoyed), got out and put me in the backseat.
I was so scared. I thought he didn’t find my little prank funny and was actually arresting me for being a nuisance. A tad bit drunk nuisance.
Anyway after my heart pounded for about a minute, he came back to the police cruiser and let me out and everyone had a laugh.
But at least I’ve never been in jail.
