recently went online to share a tale of malicious parking compliance. The story goes that around 10 or so years ago, Redditor u/Sufficient-Forever11 went to a concert and decided to make a day of it. Throughout her time in the city, she visited loads of sites and parked in loads of places. And once tourist time was over, she went down to the concert venue to a designated parking spot and paid for it.
And then a light bulb moment hit her: if she paid for a service she didn’t get, i.e. for a parking spot that the vendor claimed was not where she parked, when she did, but instead got a fine for not paying, then. She quickly wrote VISA to revoke her payment, provided all the same evidence, and,, they gladly satisfied her claim. Not only that, but they also sent a note to the vendor as to why all this happened. So they knew exactly what went down.
Yet others shared their own tales from the parking lot. Not necessarily maliciously compliance, but still a testament not to mess with folks on matters of parking as most folks understand rules and tend to follow them because [1] most are sensible, law-abiding citizens and [2] money is precious, why give it away?
In any case, folks loved the story. So much, in fact, that it got nearly 12,000 upvotes with a 97% upvote rating. You can check out the post
