Sound a bit bitter huh? I don't think I gave more than 2 parking tickets in my three year tenure. The Chippies took care of most traffic stuff (AAA with a gun - lol)Originally posted by DC Law
Usually it not COPS who do that sort of thing, but meter maids. Meter maids aren't cops...they are unsworn, untrained, individuals who tend enjoy causing other people frustration and costing them money because they hate everyone in the world...they're basically bitter little people who couldn't get any other civil service job.
Does my bias show here?
One of them got my marked car at court a couple of weeks ago. It's only $20.00, but it's all on me and a number of other cops who got similar tickets. I guess these rocket scientists don't realize that we can write tickets too. As soon as I catch one behind the wheel of a vehicle and observe ANY violation of the law...
More of a joke than anything else. If I got your email, then that is your fault. IP addresses are pretty solid and usually when something goes wrong, it is the fault of the sender anyway.Originally posted by GMan26
Our email system has the same notice underneath every single email i send from work....i don't know...
I just laugh these warnings. (just like I laugh at a paid parking lot that says they are not responsible for your vehicle. Is that why a friend sued because the lot owner didn't take ordinary caution and won? -- lol -- people are so gullable!)
It is a notice posted on our emails, it is HIPPA and FERPA required in confidential emails, because in our email system we have the possiblity to send it to the wrong person IE there are 2 other people on the University campus with the same name.
I always wanted to be a meter maid. They get to drive these really cute little scooters here with a light on top. LOL There is one that works the East side of town here, where the Courthouse is located, that sits and waits for the meters to expire so she can ticket attorneys, and cops with trial duty. I ever catch her outside of that scooter, I'll....:boks:
