I Saw You
Fake Sweepers
To the people who manage the street-sweeping areas: Where are the sweepers? I am required to move my car every week to either side of the street so the sweepers can clean the streets. Not once, and I mean once, have I heard or seen a sweeper. The garbage is still there in the same place each week. I even sat in my car overnight waiting for one to come by. The reason you ask? I have received three tickets on my car for parking on the street during designated sweeping times. I will tell you who does come by a lot: the parking authority goes up and down all night putting tickets on cars and making a lot of money!! $45 a ticket!! Making money this way should be against the law!!
