Father could have been more careful. When one has liquid on any moving vehicle it is obviously in danger of spilling. There is a tendency to blame everyone else - very hard to run any business with that compo culture.

Why would anyone get a job anymore when it’s just as rewarding to go about your day being extremely clumsy trying to ‘hurt’ yourself with a little help of the legal system...😒
