Quarters
Posted by Michael Correia
We all know them. We all hate them. We all give our quarters to them. Of course I am talking about the parking meters that surround us everyday.
Usually, I take the train in so I don't have to worry about finding a meter - but today was different. My brother let me borrow his car this week, so I decided to drive.
The nice thing is that I got here early enough so that there were a lot of open spaces on the other side of the Gardner Museum. Of course, you know what that means - searching for meters that are either out of order or have a little time left on them. I was unsuccessful in finding either, so I settled for a regular old space.
The only problem was, I had only 2 quarters. That's great if I wanted to get out, walk around the block, get back into my car, and leave - but I wanted to work (or at least needed to) work all day. These 2 quarters basically only bought me enough time to get more quarters.
So can somebody tell me why I can't find a change machine anywhere around here? Why ... more ยป
