1) the customer was parked in the garage longer than 5 minutes
2) I explained to him when he arrived that since there were 2 people in the car, he can park at the drop off zone, & as long as one person stays in the car, he can go upstairs & drop off his paperwork. I explained to him that it is a $5.00 flat rate to park in Visitor Parking from one minute to all day. The guy & the person who was driving discussed this & decided to park in Visitor Parking
3) I explained to him that it is $5.00 to park in the garage & where to pay the $5.00

The phone inside the booth rings. I look up, & there is a black car at the exit gate.

me: me
male customer who had selective listening: mcwhsl

me: "Visitor Parking booth. How may I help you?
mcwhsl: "Yeah...we parked in the garage, & I stayed in the car. We only parked for 5 minutes"
me: *Well..you decided to park in the garage knowing it was $5.00 to park there. I hoped you listened to that. I told you that you could park at the drop off zone as long as someone stayed in the car. Sorry, but you have to pay.*
me: "I'm sorry, but since you parked in the garage, you have to pay for your parking. It is $5.00 to exit."
mcwhsl: "Okay....where do we pay at?
me: "You either pay at the vending machine inside the glass elevator lobby on the same level you parked your car or at the parking office on the third floor."

I hung up the phone, & watched for the black car to back up. It finally backed up. The driver took a while to pay for the parking, but he finally exited.

I bet his selective hearing also selectively heard the wrong date to drop off his paperwork.

Just had a thought... I will so go back to working for Diamond Parking for a week if you send the SC to the Burger King at 4th south and 2nd East in Salt Lake... tell the driver to park there and have the passenger walk across the street to the library :devil:
The posted policy there is once ANY person leaves the vehicle it is parked... oh, and posted that parking is for BK customers only, so at least one person in the vehicle must be making a purchase at BK... I'd take great joy in issueing him a ticket for unauthorized parking ($25 ticket) :devil:
