A Little Rant
This is what happened to me yeasterday. It was a fun three hours. I parked in a spot downtown to see a friend. In the suburbs where I live you have to be 6 feet away from a fire hydrant so you dont get a ticket. I paid my parking till 4:30 pm. Well I did that as normal. Well so I go into starbucks and wait for my friend. I meet my friend and we go to my car at 3:30 but guess what it wasn't there. I am like omg wth. So I go to a city worker and she is like oh we probably towed it. So I am like what why? I was past the 6 feet thing. They said oh you need 15 in the city. Unfortunately they do not post there anywhere in the city at all which is nice (i call it mob politics). So i have to find the damn garage with my friend which turns out to be below a double decker street. Reminds me of down by the river jokes. So I go in and try and get my car. Turns out that oh since I am not the registered owner (my dad is) I can only pay cash. I am like oh jesus christ so i got to go to an atm and get 160 dollars for that. I get my car with their wax writing all over it. (i am a freak when it comes to a clean car so i was pissed off beyond anything) Then I notice that there is also a 100 dollar ticket on the windshield. So then I had to find my way out of the maze of lower lower level chicago.
That was my day thanks for listening to my rant.
