Albany Parking Authority

Okay — I got a parking ticket, totally my fault, I just wasn’t paying attention. Since I work downtown I figured that I would just suck it up and pay it in person. The last thing I wanted was to come out after work and find a boot on my tire.
From the moment I walked into City Hall until I was finished I experienced nothing but really super pleasant people. I asked the security guard for directions and he sent me upstairs where a very pleasant man took my ticket, which was $ 50, asked me what happened and then, after listening to me, asked me if I could pay $ 25 that day. Of course I was more than happy to do so, so he sent me back downstairs where an extremely pleasant woman took my money and told me to have a wonderful holiday.
While getting a ticket sucked, it could have been made much worse by City workers with bad attitudes.
