A few years ago, I was riding on a bus, in the city, with a window seat on the right side. At one point, the bus slowed down, getting ready to stop because a nicely dressed young lady in heels wanted to get off. Glancing out the window, I could see a couple of construction workers curbside, appearing to be cleaning up after working on the sidewalk right there alongside where the bus was preparing to stop. Well, the bus stopped, the door opened, the lady went down the steps, and she stepped right into freshly-poured wet concrete! She went in like it was quicksand. She tried to step out of the just-poured slab, but her fancy spike heels were sucked down in there somewhere. Before I knew, she got out and was standing barefoot on the grass on the other side of the wet slab, with wet concrete up above her bare feet and ankles. The construction workers were yelling at her and giving her a load of profanity because they had just smoothed their slab and were getting ready to go home, and she was yelling at the bus driver right through the open door. The bus driver just pulled away and headed toward his next stop. It was one of the funniest things I ever saw in my life. Where's the video camera when you need it?
In a hundred years, when some other construction men are tearing that sidewalk (old by then), they might find the lady's shoes. I don't know if she got them out or not.
