don't pay for parking

Morning Reading for February 20

If you don’t pay for parking, you’re likely to get a ticket.

Get enough tickets and you’re likely to get your car towed.

Getting your car towed is typically considered to be counterintuitive to the reasons you would own a car in the first place. So it’s a good idea to pay for parking.

This comes with one major observation: there are reasons you might get towed besides failing to pay for parking.

So if you find yourself in a position where the worst possible outcome is inevitable, don’t bother with small actions that would prevent it.

You don’t bother going the extra mile for a job that’s about to lay you off. You don’t bail out the boat that’s about to run aground. And sometimes, you don’t pay for parking. 

Thank you. Let’s have a great day.
