Wheelie bin given parking ticket

A bit of fun leads to a formal investigation? Some people seem to have had a humour bypass..

Re: Wheelie bin given parking ticket
I suspect there's a middle manager somewhere who isn't very busy so needs to be seen to be doing something ahead of the next budget allocation.

Re: Wheelie bin given parking ticket
Has Hell frozen over well it must have because I didn't think a traffic warden could have a sense of humour as I thought that might have been in the job description somewhere maybe in the small print

Those 'Force Biffa' bins are quick. Especially the orange ones.

Re: Wheelie bin given parking ticket
i think the sensible thing to do here is throw the traffic warden into a dark damp dingy dungeon where he will have the right to write to his local council to get his conviction overturned [maybe] if he can provide evidence that he committed no crime .

Although this was meant as a humorous incident, we take this kind of thing very seriously and have launched a formal investigation into the conduct of this officer.

What a bunch of time-wasting idiots (not to mention money wasting) - they really do need to get a life.

Re: Wheelie bin given parking ticket
I could tell it was a joke - it wasn't in Port Talbot. You could believe it happening around here.

Yes I know it was a joke... Just trying to bring a bit of humor to the article.
Anyway the traffic warden in question is in hot water with the employers.
