If You Can't Do This, Don't Get a Hummer

I was walking out of the parking garage this morning when a lady in a silver Hummer drove up near the ticket booth. She called to me: "Excuse me! Can you do me a favor?"

I thought, sure, maybe she's going to ask me to siphon gas out of someone else's car.

"Can you put my card in there please? I can't reach."

She still hadn't fully pulled up to the booth at this point--she didn't even try, really. So the moral of the story is: if you know you can't reach the card reader from your window, don't buy a Hummer.
