My Very First Boot!



It was a really sad day yesterday when I returned to my car after school. I drive up to 4th South and 9th East and park in an Office Max parking lot and ride trax up to the U.
I do this because....
1) I don't want to pay $132.00 for a parking pass and I usually take trax unless I'm running late. 2) I thought it was a great idea and I have done this about four times with it not being a problem.
3) The lot is not even close to being full so I thought is was ok to park there.
I come up to my car and see this nice note explaining that my car has been immobilized with a BOOT and to take the boot off I just have to pay $80.00. Awesome! I would have much rather received a $20.00 parking ticket up at the U. Not only is it bad that I have to pay $80 but my WONDERFUL idea is ruined. I learned my lesson to read every sign near by any area that I park and to never park in Office Max's parking lot again!
