If you thought you were having a bad day, just imagine waking up to find your car submerged in water.

That's how one Massachusetts resident got their day started on Thursday.

According to Quincy Police, no one was in the car when it apparently rolled right out of the driveway and right into the water.

The police dive team was called in to get the car out of the water. The Quincy Police livestreamed the dive team pulling the vehicle out of the water on Periscope.

There's no word yet if the person was late for work or whether the boss believed the "my car sank" excuse.
