Title: Things to do once you retire
Post by: Jay w on 30 April 2008, 13:25:52
Working people frequently ask retired people what they do to make their days interesting.

Well, for example, the other day my wife and I went into town and went into a shop. We were only in there for about 5 minutes. When we came out, there was a cop writing out a parking ticket. We went up to him and said, "Come on man, how about giving a senior citizen a break?" He ignored us and continued writing the ticket. I called him a turd. He glared at me and started writing another ticket for having worn tyres.

So my wife called him a s***head. He finished the second ticket and put it on the windshield with the first. Then he started writing a third ticket. This went on for about 20 minutes. The more we abused him, the more tickets he wrote.

Personally, we didn't care. We came into town by bus. We try to have a little fun each day now that we're retired. It's important at our age .

I dont blame you for having a laugh but i feel sorry for that poor bloke or lady owner of the car to get all the parking tickets when they did nothing wrong I know i would be bloody mad to come back to my car to find all the tickets on it >:(

Souldnt have parked it on double yellows for more than 20mins.....cars are allowed 5 mins if no other signs say otherwise

And shouldnt be driving about with illegal tyres.

So I reckon its the owners fault.

 ;D ;D ;D i felt guilty at laughing at the joke when i read it first time round

Then saw the serious responses and had to read it again thinking it was real.

Now I am just confused.
