I fought the law (again) and the law won...sorta.

Honestly, I think YOU take yourself too seriously. You seem to have this attitude that you can just "do as you please" in life. It just doesn't work that way.

I wouldn't call it that attitude at all. The government, or in this case a school, over steps it boundaries. NOT JUST IN THIS CIRCUMSTANCE. I'll ask you the same thing I asked the supervisor. So, you're telling me you've never done anything that has broken a rule, law, or regulation? You can disagree with that statement I made about boundaries, but because you do DOES NOT mean that I do whatever I please. Seeing as how you don't really know all too much about the overall situation I think it is somewhat arrogant of you to say something like that.

The word discretion comes into play in an important way actually. Laws are there for a reason, usually because people go too far with things. aka, if there weren't rules about parking between lines, some people would take up 3 spaces. A good reason for the rule. To protect other people from some peoples arrogance. In my case, I go out of my way to do the opposite. I park in the furthest spot in the furthest parking lot of my dorm. Near NO other car. I do not enjoy lugging groceries, bags, etc all the way out to my car. I do it however, I go to pain stacking lengths to protect my car from the disrespect of others.

By parking on the line, I am get an extra sense of security and but it is in no way hindering another spot. Maybe it doesn't mean anything, but it makes me feel better.

If I were to do 'whatever I wanted' I would park completely within the marked off area at the end of the lot.


That is to say, theses things are just the straw that continues to fire my anger towards this university. You wouldn't know that our student government isn't recognized by the rest of the Big 10 because it is controlled by the administration, giving it no power. That is alright though.

I should have stayed at USC. I absolutely loath this place.

Sure I have, and I've also had to pay the consequences of breaking those rules or laws. Just as you have had to do.

I am anything but arrogant. You're right, I don't know all that much about you - just what you "give" of yourself here and that is the attitude you put off. Obviously I am not alone in my thinking. :hmm:

Again, you see the importance of rules/laws - but feel that if they don't *really* apply to you - that you should be able to do as you please.

As do I with my vehicle. But if you were far away from all the cars - why not just park IN the lines? After all, that's why there are lines and not just open space.

It's a privilege to go there, not a right - nor is it mandatory. If you hate it that much - why don't you go elsewhere?

I'll give you the same advice I give all young people.

Write it all down now, because when you get older, you may not know everything anymore. If it's written down, you'll have a reference for your future decisions.

You left USC (as in Southern California?) to go to Penn State? What is your major if you don't mind my asking? I don't mean to offend any Penn State alums on this board, but I can't think of a single major in my sphere of experience (science and engineering) other than maybe Mechanical Engineering that I would do that for.

[curtus e flush]

got a parking ticket....waahhh:bawl:

[NewbieChris]

Sure I have, and I've also had to pay the consequences of breaking those rules or laws. Just as you have had to do.

Then why did you do what you did?

I am anything but arrogant. You're right, I don't know all that much about you - just what you "give" of yourself here and that is the attitude you put off. Obviously I am not alone in my thinking. :hmm:

I cannot control what you and others think of me because of the snip its you get here. There is no doubt in my mind that I come off as arrogant. Thats fine.

Again, you see the importance of rules/laws - but feel that if they don't *really* apply to you - that you should be able to do as you please.

No, I believe in discretion. This is the important part of our discussion. The reason for a rule is to protect other from someone. If what you are doing is not interfering with other there is absolutely no purpose for the rule. In no way is my car hindering someone else's ability to park, which is THE REASON FOR THE RULE!

As do I with my vehicle. But if you were far away from all the cars - why not just park IN the lines? After all, that's why there are lines and not just open space.

Oddly enough, someone chose the spot next to me one time. Clear at the end of the lot, with plenty of other open spots. I can take a picture of the paint they took off of the pass door on the driver side if you would like me to.

It's a privilege to go there, not a right - nor is it mandatory. If you hate it that much - why don't you go elsewhere?

If you thought about it logically you would realize why. This is my last semester double majoring in Finance and Economics. It would be fiscally irresponsible to leave at this juncture. In other words I am stuck. You can place blame on me in this case.

Cost benefit of Smeal College of Business vs School of Liberal Arts at USC. They didn't offer Finance. I started college as an Architecture major, but ended up disliking it.

Nah bro. YOU over stepped the boundary - the white line you are supposed to park within.
