www.Parctel.com: From the Sports by Fletch blog:
I was picking up the Bride-to-be from the airport last night and I was doing the circle thing in the terminal parking lot until she called and then I told her where to meet me as I parked to get her in the car. Well as she was walking up, an "Atlanta Police Truck" came up behind me and started honking for me to move. Even though it was obvious I was waiting on the Bride-to-be to get to the car. I was the only car around and she was walking straight towards me. Anyways, this tool bag kept honking and honking, then as I got out to open the trunk and I was FULLY in the pull over lane, I left the door slightly cracked, he honked again, and was pointing towards the AGAIN, SLIGHTLY opened door.
Well of course I had to make a production out of it. I walked around to the door, but before shutting it, I stepped in front of his car to see if he could have KEPT GOING IN HIS LANE without hitting it, and SURE ENOUGH, he could have. I also made a point to look in the other lane that he could have gone into to pass me, and it was empty. I made the swirving motion with my hands so he could see me, and he honked again. What a loser.
Here is my point. He wasn't going to do anything except honk. Really? Is that the ATL Police (airport parking detail)'s best strategy? Honk? That will put people in a good mood. At NO POINT did it appear he was going to get out and do anything. Then I started to think. What could he have done? Given me a ticket for being parked in a temporary parking spot? Give me a ticket for doing NOTHING illegal? Nope. All he COULD Do was honk.
And that got me thinking....who, besides this guy THINK they are so important, but really they DON'T have the power they think they have?
