i would wave and say hi; talk about the weather to destract her while i walked to my car and put in the money, lol. i take it this happened to yall?

Sarah said...

yup and we got yelled at for not knowing proper metermaid manners..and u r sort of wrong...

Tom said...

Or maybe, just maybe, she was helping out and going to take the branch that the wind blew onto your car...

Sarah said...

tom that has nothing to do with the ?

Tom said...

Fine, the answer would be to admit you didn't put enough money in/forgot, and say you are sorry, and moved by your honesty, she decides to be nice to you.

Am I right? Tell me I am right.

pretty much. i went to put money in the meter before i talked to her...apparently, bad ettiquite. i was supposed to talk to her before putting money in teh meter...and just accept the ticket because she was doing her job.

Rachael said...

yeah, she was grumpy at me.
