A true story-ZT

Apparently, a true story...


Outside Bristol Zoo, there is a car park for 150 cars and 8 coaches.
It was manned by a very pleasant attendant with a ticket machine charging cars £1 and coaches £5.
This parking attendant worked there solid for all of 25 years.
Then one day, he just didn't turn up for work.

"Oh well", said Bristol Zoo Management - "we'd better phone up the City Council and get them to send a new parking attendant..."
"Err no", said the Council, "that car park is your responsibility"...

"Err no", said Bristol Zoo Management, "the attendant was employed by the City Council, wasn't he?"
... "Err NO!"

Sitting in his villa in Spain, is a bloke who had been taking the car park fees, estimated at £400 per day at Bristol Zoo for the last 25 years...
Assuming 7 days week, this amounts to just over £3.6 million...

Fanbloodytastic!!!

修补停车场是谁的责任呢?
二十五年,停车场不会一次都不用修吧?不知他们有没有为钱从哪里来探讨过。
如果是council修的,那就是council member们从没去过动物园,没交过钱 :) 如果是动物园修的,那就是动物园门票太贵了:)

怎么知道这家伙上Spain去了呢?知道了,那可就不是Fanbloodytastic了。

我是说,那家伙是不是最后坐牢了呀?
