So I went to Starbucks for some coffee yesterday for about five minutes and on my way out, I encountered a big fat parking enforcement cop on a Segway, writing out a parking ticket.
So I walked over and asked "Don't you have better things to do than write a parking ticket the second that meter runs out?" He ignored me and continued writing the ticket. I asked why he was ignoring me, and he just ignored me some more. "You know," I added, "the trains ran on time in Nazi Germany, and I'll bet their parking meters were vigorously enforced, too." Finally, he turned toward me. He tore the ticket out of his book and smiled, placing a copy on the windshield, and then walked all the way around the car. When he got to the back, he finally spoke to me.
"Worn tires, too, huh?" He started writing up another ticket. When he put it on the windshield, I asked if that made him feel like a better man. He went around the other side and started writing a ticket for tinted windows. "You're going to have to walk around the car a lot more times than that if you want to lose a few pounds," I added. He started writing even more furiously into the ticket book. Finally, I told him I was going to go back into the store and just wait until he was done writing tickets. I told him to have a nice day. He replied that he would, and that people like me truly do make his day.
I'll bet the poor guy who drives that car with the Obama/Biden sticker and the dozen tickets on his windshield won't feel the same way when he comes out.
