[ARCHIVED THREAD] - GF parked her car in a loading zone.. I had to pay to get it out.. (vent thread)

Posted: 9/9/2010 11:09:08 PM EDT

She is going to school for cosmetology and parking downtown in the zones are fucked all to hell.. She parked her car right in a loading zone and less than six hours later had a ticket and her car towed shortly after.. I get a message saying she can't find her car where she parked it an hour after I got off of work and some transients are harassing her. I haul ass downtown and pick her up. Drive her to the lot where her car is and pay $327 to get it out plus the $60 parking ticket she got while there.

Fuck my life. Worked my ass off today just to go home and relax but instead had to drive 30 miles out of my way to help her.

My girlfriend, probably soon ex, went to school for cosmetology and that sounds like something that would happen to her. She gets in trouble, does something stupid, and it's up to me to get her ass out of it. It must be some sort of class they teach.....how to fuck things up by not thinking, then get others to unfuck your fuck up. We just got into a fight so I'm feeling especially ornery.

$387 plus a 30 mile drive is worth a lot more than a sammich.

Just sayin'.

That's a lot of money, but it was a loading zone.

However commercial plates for your car are around $60/year depending on where you live, and you can park in a loading zone with those.

THIS!!!

When we pulled up to the tow service lot, I wouldn't have gotten out of the car.

Stupid hurts

I don't get the futon thing? Shouldn't she be extra nice right now? If she's not being extra nice, she gets the futon and a bill for what you spent.

And you paid for her mistake why?

One of the reasons I am currently single and not seriously dating anyone is because my mouth would have had me in major trouble with this situation.

Step one is I want to date an adult who can either recognize the consequences of parking their vehicle in a loading zone or figure out how to get their car back on their own after parking it in a loading zone.

The next concept is why would I want to date someone who is not grown up enough to park where they should park when the main reason I want to date someone is to find someone to have kids with? Kind of like trying to have a kid raise kids or something.

As far as paying the money out of my wallet goes, only if it was my vehicle and I wanted the vehicle back.

And I won't loan a spare vehicle out to someone who does such things with my vehicles. Don't care how good she looks. If she is that valuable I would drive her around.

And when it comes to the excuse of no other parking, give her the bill for her parking concept. When it comes to not reading signs, ask how she knows what speedlimit might be on a given road.

Overall this comes back to why I am single and not dating right now. I have a serious lack of sleep and it is causing me to look at people doing stupid things and I just tell them to handle it themselves with their bank account.

You guys don't realize it's not your problem. Would I pick her up? Yes. Shell out $387? NO.
