Dear Philadelphia Parking Authority (PPA) Agents
I understand that you folks are trying to do your job, I really do. But seriously, for me to walk out to my car at 12:12PM and see “12:10PM” on my ticket is absolutely absurd. What else is crazy is that you folks walk around all day marking cars and writing times in your notepad to track what meters are expiring.
Yes, I do hate the PPA agents but not enough to kill any of you. But I guarantee you, with the violence that’s going on in Philadelphia - if someone is willing to kill a cop for a stupid reason, then I am pretty sure someone will physically harm you for a stupid reason. And I’m pretty sure you know this - considering that after you write the ticket, you run. You run for dear life. At this point, I’m not even sure which job is more hazardous to your mental and physical health - cop or PPA agent?
Though I would like to thank you for writing my ticket today. You see…when I got into work, there was already 2 hours worth of money in my meter. I just had to pay another hour worth and I was at work. On top of that, I’m parked across the street from my building. So a $20 parking voucher (ticket) for premium parking in the city within 30 feet of my work for the rest of the day? Priceless. Can’t beat it.
Oh yea…I do plan on paying those other 3 tickets I got as well. I’ve just been lazy. Thanks.
