ESPN's Britt McHenry is Not Nice....

Tire iron. To the car, not her, although ...

 

Holy shit, you are on 17 different rants.

We are dealing with a private towing company - not out of state license plates, or speed traps. Shit the only thing missing is how the IRS is stealing our money.
The cashier behind the glass (you know, the case we are talking about HERE) is not a government worker. She is a pissant cashier taking money and having to deal with "I didn't do anything wrong" dickheads all day.

Scale the dosage back, will ya?

 

I'd actually be interested in a real answer on how a business with limited parking is supposed to deal with parking schnorrers like McHenry who dine at your restaurant and use up a space the rest of the night.

 

Not sure. Validated parking tickets with time stamps, maybe?

 

Is that even the issue? I thought it wasn't that she stayed there all night but that her car was there overnight, after the place closed.

 

Ha ha ha - that actually made me laugh and you are right.

I guess I have watched too many episodes of "parking wars" recently .....

 

However - if the place was closed, why do they care that a spot in their lot is being taken up? It isn't an issue until the car is still there the next day when they open.

 

That's it. And lest some ignoramus around here fall into the "But they're not using it then!" trap, restaurants frequently are re-stocked during the wee hours of the morning, by vendors are on very tight delivery schedules. Britt McHenry may not realize it, but her actions have consequences even if she doesn't have to pay for 'em.

 

I get the feeling we've moved on from Britt McHenry being a mega-bitch.

 

What does a car in the parking lot have to do with vendors delivering shit?

I mean, it sounds like there are only 10-12 spots so maybe it is a small lot - but I get a kick out of these parking lots for strip malls where there are 900 spots that want the ten cars in the lot towed -- not because they care, but because they get a kickback from the towing company.

 

No, she is still a mega-bitch

 

Hmmmmm ... I wonder ...
