Boy, they got that right!
I bring my car home for the first time and parked it in the garage. Of course, it was Christmas Eve, and the people responsible for issuing parking permits were no where to be found. That doesn't stop the ticket-givers, though!
For the record, this is a private parking garage. I won't have to pay for the ticket, but it's still kind of ridiculous in light of the fact that you can park your Hummer in the handicapped spot every day without a permit, and never, ever get a ticket. I really wonder about the guy they send out on ticket patrol. Seems like they got a new one a few months back, and he might be brain damaged. You can park across three spots without trouble, but having a pass that's one day expired or just not hanging straight in your windshield will get you a $35 fine.
I'll be really amused if they send the poor guy out to write tickets on Christmas Day. I know they sent him out on Thanksgiving, so I won't be surprised to receive
two nice little yellow gifts from them this year. Of course, I still won't be able to get a pass until the day after Christmas, at least.
Sometimes, life is just hilarious.
