February 25th Yet another angry rant.

So on Thursday the parking services gave me a ticket for being parked in a traffic lane. First of all, I parked my car on Tuesday when it was snowing, so I could not see the lines on the pavement. Second, My car was only over the line by a foot, and I got a $25 ticket for parking in a traffic lane. I was not parked in a traffic lane, I was parked over my line, but at any rate, this is not what really ticks me off. What made me really angry is that on Tuesday and Wednesday when there was snow on the ground I did not get a ticket, but then Thursday comes and the snow melts... ticket. Then to make things worse, not only did I get that ticket at 11:20 am on Thursday, at 12:45 pm the parking services came by a second time and gave me a second ticket for the same offense. I came out to my car and found two $25 tickets on my windshield and they were unwilling to help me out and at least dismiss one of them. How the h*** can you ticket someone twice for the same violation on the same day? That would be like a police officer giving you a speeding ticket for 60 in a 55, and then giving you a ticket for 59, 58, 57, and 56, because they occured slightly later than the original violation as you were slowing down. Why would they even think that it is appropriate to give someone two tickets for the same violation? Really? Are you serious? You are going to ticket me for being a foot over a line, which did not affect a single person all week it was there, just because you can? Whole bunch of Police Academy dropouts with nothing better to do with their time, going on a power trip to f*** someone else over.
