Thursday, March 17, I parked in the Ampco parking lot over the Greyhound Bus station. At 8:40 AM I paid for my parking receipt and placed it in my window next to another old receipt that was lying on the dashboard. I flipped that old one upside down so as to avoid confusion for the parking agent.
When I returned to my car in the afternoon, I found a Parking Violation (# 48706210, issued by SAMUEL) stuffed in the crack of my door. Since I remembered putting the receipt I was confused why I got it so I looked and I could see my parking receipt in the middle of the dashboard, exactly where I left it.
I went to work the next day and I ran into a coworker (name withheld, violation #701260881) who tells me that the exact same thing also happened to her a week or so ago.
It appeared that their parking agent is simply not looking closely enough to the contents of the dashboard before he issues the citation.
