Parked the car in a parking lot 15 mins before job interview. Plenty of time to spare.

Go to pay for parking.

Ticket machine doesn't accept cards. Fine, I have notes.

Ticket machine doesn't accept notes. Shit, I need to go get change quick.

FUCKING FUCKER DOESN'T ACCEPT £1 COINS WELL WHAT THE FUCK TO YOU ACCEPT THEN YOU FUCKING FUCK I'M GOING TO BE LATE FOR MY JOB INTERVIEW OR GET A £80 FUCKING PARKING FINE

What, why?! Why?! Who designed that pile of shit!?

@daarkfall some greedy bastards i believe :p

@lotd but who's going to use <£1 coins at the stupid parking meter when there's cards and notes??? it seems really counterproductive

@ParkCity exactly.

Did you check interviewer if he has a change? You never know

Don't pay?
I was in a similar situation myself
> late for a job interview because parking in Central lisbon is a nightmare.
>found parking spot (20 mins late at this point)
>machine doesn't accept bills, no coins in wallet.
>go buy a cup of coffee just to get some coins.
>machine broken, coins just fall out
>*fuck this*
>Omw to building when I find a parking warden
>'Yeah, that machine is broken, don't worry about it' aka free parking coz no maintenance.
>35 mins late for interview
>still had to wait 10 minutes at the reception for the recruiter.

No accept adequate payment, no pay no fine no parking voucher? /shrugs

@Wallpaper did not get job

In sweden, broken meter = parking prohibited.
