Default So it finally happened

Well first off I am no way saying this was works fault for giving us 12 to 14hr shifts.

After coming off a 12hr shift I have been on the 6days a week for the last 3 weeksn, I decided I wanted the top down on my way home. So I put the top down and drove home in happiness. Well I got home, took the dog for a walk and ate some food. Then I started watching some TV and eventually passed out. Well I woke up at 6am today, and realized I never put my top back up.

So I go to let the dog out and me not being awake I didn't notice it was raining. My giveaway is my dog hates the rain and wont leave the back steps when it is. I walk over to the window where I can see my jeep, and see rain drops splashing on the floor boards. So now I have to go back to work with bags and a towel to cover my seat so I wont have wet ass when I go in. Yay.

It happens to everyone who uses their jeep, especially with the soft tops. You never know when, but it will happen.

My CJ had vinyl seats that would just wipe dry.
I always carried a towel in the Jeep for "unannounced" showers and dew.

I kinda wish I had vinyl in the JK, but it gets hot in the summer.

This is why I have neoprene seat covers. I have a towel already under the cover. When It rains I just pull off the covers. The towel is usually damp on top but my seats are dry.
