11:05

“Parking Enforcement” AKA “I can’t find anything useful to do in life so I’m going to make other people miserable” ticketed me today at 11:05 for being in a no-parking from 11-1 on Wednesday’s zone.

Now, admittedly, I was parked, past 11, on a Wednesday. But five minutes? Come on.

That rule exists so that the street sweepers can sweep the streets. The street has not been swept. In fact, I’ve been watching, and the street is rarely swept. I think the damn sweeper should be the only one allowed to ticket for that violation, and it damn sure wasn’t trying to sweep the street five minutes past eleven this morning.

This city needs to find a more considerate way to ream people up the ass. What a waste of $50.
