Vaquero Voice

“One time when I was backing up, this other car almost rear-ended me. And then, another time, my boss, she was getting out of her parking spot and she almost hit me when I was parking and then that was it. … I told her that she almost hit me and I think we should have a bigger parking space.”

“So, my first semester back, when I was in school up north, we didn’t need visitor parking permits. So, my first semester back I find out we need to get that. I go get it. Right? So, I park. I just decided to park in the parking lot in front of the police department. I was going to get a visitor’s parking [permit].  I walked over there, five minutes later I come back and I already had a ticket. … I find that hilarious.”

“I have seen two people almost get in a fight. One girl was going into a parking spot and another one stole it and she got down and wanted to tell the other person something, but the other person stayed in the vehicle and she finally left and she stopped.”

“When I was here trying to turn in all my requirements, like TSI and meningitis shots,  I had parked here many times and never got the warning ticket to show that if I come back here without the parking permit I would get a ticket. And recently, I just got a ticket and I had to pay $35 and I never really got the warning.”
