It definitely left an emotional scar, and I still get angry if I think about it now. © jsalinas90 / Reddit

14 Innocent Souls Who Learned a Lesson the Hard Way
Story 14:
I was driving to downtown Dallas for a job interview and pulling into a parking lot, the kind where you pay at a kiosk—$10 or whatever for the day.
A clearly homeless guy on a rental bike, wearing some kind of generic “work uniform” shirt (like what you’d see a mechanic wear), saw me pull in and came over to wave me into a spot, then biked over to my window. I rolled it down.
“Good job parking,” he said.
“Now you can pay me.” He held up a wad of parking tickets. “Uh huh,” I said, knowing this wasn’t legit at all but not really wanting to start an argument with a guy who had nothing to lose and would be outside around my car while I’d be trapped inside for an interview for a few hours. “How much?”
He said $10, so I paid him, and he handed me a parking receipt and biked off in a hurry.
It actually was a legit ticket for that lot, but it had expired the day before. I had to pay an extra $6 to park there, but whatever. © sertorius42 / Reddit
