Party Favors

This UPS truck pulled up next to my motorcycle in front of the Court Of Appeals in downtown. I immediately noticed the two parking tickets on either side of the windshield, so I struck up a chat with the driver. He was an easy going dude, and he let me know the real deal on the tickets.

Apparently the United Parcel Service buys large batches of parking tickets directly from the city of Los Angeles at a bulk discount. Consider that once again.. UPS pays for tickets they *haven’t gotten yet* and gets a discount from the city! “The ticket is really pointless..” said the driver. In fact it’s been issued already anyhow.

You’d think they could just buy a universal parking pass or something. The USPS truck in the foreground has none of this crap to monkey around with, and both of them are basicly serving the same function. That’s what you get for not being a government-entity there UPS..

Join the party!
