[00:00.00]Listen to a conversation between a student and a university employee.
[00:05.65]Student: Hi. I had a question. I normally park my car in the lot next to the music building.
[00:12.84]Employee: Oh, okay. Lot 7.
[00:15.22]Student: Yeah. Yeah, I never had a problem using that lot before…
[00:19.29]Employee: Is it about us closing the lot this Friday? We had students complaining, but I can give you a pass to Lot 10. [00:26.36]You know about the orchestra festival in the music building that day, right?
[00:29.82]Student: Right. I knew about that. My question is actually about…well, you know, while I’m here I guess I will need a pass but the fact is I’m in the orchestra festival myself. I play the cello. So maybe…
[00:45.38]Employee: Sorry. On Friday that lot is non-university guests, so you’ll have to…
[00:51.19]Student: Go to Lot 10. You sure? I’m in the orchestra.
[00:55.91]Employee: Sorry.
[00:57.13]Student: Okay. That’s fine. I guess I’ll need a pass, but anyway, I got a parking ticket yesterday.
[01:04.36]Employee: Okay. Do you want to pay your fine now? You have two weeks to pay it.
[01:10.17]Student: I don’t. Actually I don’t understand why I got it. I always park in the same lot. I mean, I didn’t do anything different.
[01:18.58]Employee: Okay. Is there a code number on the ticket? I can look it up.
[01:23.26]Student: Yeah. I remember it. It says 036.
[01:27.37]Employee: Alright, let me check. This was yesterday?
[01:31.16]Student: Yeah, early afternoon it would have been.
[01:34.30]Employee: Okay. Violation 0-3-6. It says here parking in more than one space. [01:44.92]Do you have a big car or something? I know we repainted the lines closer together so we could fit more cars in the lot.
[01:51.48]Student: No, it’s a small car.
[01:53.77]Employee: Well, you must have parked over the line. More than one parking spot.
[01:57.70]Student: Really? I’m sure I wasn’t.
[02:00.53]Employee: We have forms to contest the ticket. Do you want one? [02:03.93]If you don’t think you did anything wrong, you can fill it out here. Let me get you one.
[02:08.92]Student: Even though it will probably be a great waste of time…
[02:11.70]Employee: Okay. And you wanted that pass to Lot 10, right?
[02:15.93]Student: Oh, yeah, right, I forgot about that.
