The Joys of Winter
Ah, the joys of winter. There’s nothing like waking up on time to get to work, only to realize that your windshield is completely frozen over. Then you have to spend 30 minutes de-icing the windshield before it’s even remotely safe to drive on public roads. Of course, that’s assuming the door hasn’t frozen over, preventing you from hopping in.
In these situations, the comment serves as a helpful heads-up and helps to keep things amicable. At least they were honest about the situation and there was nothing they could do about it! Any parking officer that lives in snowy places would understand, and hopefully, they didn’t punish them for the work of Mother Nature.
