Co-worker cancels his wedding for his son's funeral.

So I decide to change his life.

Man, like, just bad luck.

The most insane amount of bad luck for this poor guy.

A series of unfortunate events.

Yes.

My co-worker recently lost his car. Don't know the details

probably broke down or something. So he had to cancel his own wedding for his son's funeral last

weekend. So he lost his car. He lost his son. And now he's not getting married. Yes. Wow,

that starts off right. Like, geez. He's in a really shitty spot. I don't think this guy is one of those make someone feel sorry in order to take advantage to them type. So I was already kind of half-ass looking around at newer cars, waiting for a deal for a few months, but not needing one ASAP. When I hear this guy who was Ubering to work every day, I was like, holy shit, I just got to go ahead and pull the trigger on a new to me car and give him my old car. Beautiful. That's a great idea. He's got. OPE's freaking nice as heck. OPE's great. I've decided I'm going to do it, but I have no idea how to do it.

I want to preserve his dignity, so I'm not going to make a big show of it. In fact, I really don't like the fact that our coworkers will figure it out when they see him driving my car. I don't feel like I'm doing it for self-aggrandizement. Everything just happened to line up where I can really help this guy. Yeah, that makes sense. So what I would have done with this car is I would have donated to NPR because I wouldn't get much trade in and I don't want to hassle like with all the selling and stuff, right? And because OPE's a nerd. So how should I approach this? What is the most graceful way to give this to him and refuse payment if he offers? And I don't wanted to be weird. I mean, I know it can only control my side of things. But if there are some things I can say or do that

would make it easier, I'd appreciate some insight. I think Opie's overthinking it a little bit.

What do you think he should do? Uh, give him the car. I think paint the car a new color

and then like a Mr. Beast it and just like give it him.

Yeah, we should go all the way and it's like, hey, let's make a YouTube video.

That's going to go to millions of people.

This, this guy lost to son and I had to cancel his wedding.

So now I'm giving him a car.

A brand new car to him. To him. That's my old car. Yeah. But there is an update, John. Oh. So I showed up right as he was walking across the lot to his truck to leave for the week. Wait, does he have a truck? I ran up and was like, hey, how are you holding up? He sighed heavily and said, I'm getting through it because I must get through it.

Wow. I ran up and was like, hey, how you holding up? He sighed heavily and said, I'm getting through it because I must get through it.

Wow.
