I'm going to dispute it tomorrow. Seems ridiculous to dispute a parking ticket, but that's $15 that I don't believe I should pay. If he would've been even another 90-120 seconds the meter wouldn't have been expired.
Don't know if that's much of an argument, and while I can't proove that I was going to get the change I needed, I'm still going to try.
Yes, this is one of my Costanza moments.
I once got a ridiculous parking ticket.....parking in the wrong direction on an EXTREMELY quiet little one way street. so, I go to court, armed with a very self righteous and somewhat sarcastic :shock: written statement....stuff like "while people continue to park in emergency lanes and handicapped areas, you're out there dealing with the REAL problems...." the judge listened....and told me to pay on my way out :xIf I had known then what I know now...

if you're gonna be a lazy ass and use a motorized scooter to get from the 'Safeway Senior Day-Free Cake' table and putter over to the lotto line...it would be much appreciated if you would actually TURN AROUND AND LOOK BEHIND YOU before you decide to suddenly throw said scooter in reverse, and thereby almost taking my toes off FOUR TIMES! After the first time I even gave you a 5 foot buffer zone. :twisted:
RAT FUCKThe joy of life comes from our encounters with new experiences, and hence there is no greater joy than to have an endlessly changing horizon, for each day to have a new and different sun.

So I go to a pizza joint I frequent. They are out of plain slices and tell me I can wait twenty five minutes for some. They offer instead some sausage slices that are made if I don't want to wait instead. I say yes...and then they charge me extra for the sausage. I'd say that's a ratfuck move those ratfucks. :-x0

Just, not enough.
I need more.
Nothing seems to satisfy.

I have yet another doozy of a RF story :roll:
My soon to be ex-husband is trying to get me to PAY him for my daughter's bed...it didn't fit into her new room when we moved so I left it behind at the time. He is now getting a smaller bed for her (to accommodate moving my son into her room , I suspect his girlfriend -is who is 21 years younger than he -is pregnant) so I want the old bed back. He says I have to buy it from him. Bear in mind he is a heart surgeon and I make $9/hr at a job that allows me to bring my kids with me to work.

I find this spot, notice that I have no silver change in my pocket, so I run across the street to go get some change to put in the meter and when I come back a ticket has already been left on my windshield... like within 90 seconds. What the fuck?

Ratfucks.
I see your point. But, I still think my ratfuckery is eclipsed by the meter maid's. Allow the person a 2 minute grace period or something if you're just sitting there watching them (what an easy job that must be). You don't know if that person is just going to walk away or is coming back with change to pay the meter.
Nevertheless, I'll probably just pay the damn ticket. Don't think it's worth my time to go down and dispute when I'm pretty sure how it'll go.7/2/06 - Denver, CO

You are a meter citation person. Perhaps you've just walked this row and you know the meter has expired. A person pulls in and gets out and off he goes.. You do see them check their pockets and not finding any usable change , go on about their business. What would you do?
How were they to know that you were getting change to do whats expected here?
Not trying to belabor the point , but someone is a RF for doing what they are paid to do?_____________________________________SIGNATURE________________________________________________

I understand the situation. Just trying to make some comedy out of my frustation yesterday. Even at the moment, I knew it was my fault. They were doing their job.
