According to the parking office, anyone not having any $ to pay for their parking has to get an IOU from them.
The phone inside the booth rings. I look up, & there is a car at the exit gate.
me: "Visitor parking booth. How may I help you?"
girl: "Yeah...I forgot my wallet. Can you raise the gate, & I will can pay later?"
me: "I'm sorry, but per the parking office rules anyone not having any $ has to get an IOU from the parking office. I'm sorry, but I am not allowed to raise the gate."
girl: "But there are cars behind me. Can't you just raise the gate, & I'll go back inside after exiting?"
me: "I'm sorry, but you will have to tell them to back up."
girl: "But there are cars behind me. Can't you just raise the gate, & I'll go back inside after exiting?"
I transfer the call to the Parking office. She speaks to them at the call box, but she does not back up. She sits at the exit gate in her car for several minutes, & then she literally "smashes" the call button with her hand.
Campus police arrive. The cop gets out of the car & goes up to her. He motions for the traffic behind her to back up. She then backs up. She exits several minutes later.
