A Short Letter to GMU's Parking Office
Good afternoon, I would like to appeal my citation based on the fact that I am purchasing a permit from GMU immediately. Since I am purchasing a permit at $200 and the GMU community is making a $125 profit compared to what it would make if I were paying the $75 citation I feel that the difference justifies overturning my citation. Additionally I am unable to pay both, and would prefer to be able to afford a permit, as it will prevent this from happening again. In summation, since I am currently purchasing a permit, and GMU would profit more from this transaction than the other, I argue that overturning this citation would benefit both the GMU community and myself. Thank you.

You've Got To Be Kidding!
For some reason unbeknowst to me (wait, stop, don't you love that word?) my company gave me a bonus. I know, right? The corporate world is amazing! I sit here and chat (or at least, I used to) and do homework, read for class, watch tv and movies AND YET I GET A BONUS?! If I didn't hate the corporate world so much I'd sign up for keeps. My boss even shoke my hand and told me it was for work well done. Please tell me what work?
Ok, yes, I do slack off a lot-- only because half the time they give us no work to do. And when there is work I put my own stuff aside to get it done as soon as I can. I feel it's only fair. But, I feel as though I have now received a what was it? a moral mandate! that says I can keep watching movies while folding 1,000 brochures. YES, 1,000. It's only fair when said brochure features a rosy-cheeked young G.W. Bush that while doing it I get to watch things like Cool Hand Luke and think about breaking out.
