Modern Parks Just Aren’t Cutting It
(An angry-looking man storms up to me with his camera still around his neck.)
Customer: “I’d like to file a complaint!”
Me: “Sorry to hear that, sir. What’s the problem?”
Customer: “Why don’t you call some of your maintenance men to get out in the park and mow the grass?”
Me: *assuming he means a lawn area, as this is a national park* “Where did you mean, sir?”
(The customer names one of the park’s prime visitation spot, which is famous for its inner fields.)
Me: “I’m sorry, sir, but the grass is kept long to provide habitats and protection for the animals in the park.”
Customer: “Why the h*** would you do that? Don’t hide them! I paid money to come take pictures of them! The animals are here for me to take pictures of!”
