A storm in a car park . . .

Surely, if Mr Perriment had shown the common courtesy of telephoning the office at Caradon and had explained the situation before wrongfully parking and putting the poor car park attendant (who was only doing his job) in this situation, things might have been very different.

I am sure that, if he had a parking space of his own that someone was illegally using and could not park there himself, he would then call for the attendant to be dismissed as he was not doing his job.As for doing voluntary work at the same time, many people try to do their bit for the community, but do not expect perks or medals for doing so.
