Yours against theirs
I abhor being in a situation in which it’s my word against theirs…Particularly if theirs is that of an authoritative one! Yesterday as I was driving home from work, I noticed something on my dashboard. I thought it was a flyer of some sort…it wasn’t. It was a ticket for ‘failure to pay parking fee.’ I am very very very positive that I paid the parking fee. I can contest the ticket, but I need proof of my payment. How am I supposed to prove it? The parking lot payment option only consists of a large group of numbered slots that one is able to insert a dollar in; in other words there are no agents…I parked in spot 341, I inserted a dollar in slot 341. I don’t have a receipt. And I refuse to pay 35$ for something I did not do. I’m going to contest it nonetheless; I’m interested in the outcome when I stand before the judge and demand they wave it because I’m telling the truth and nothing but the truth … Of course I wont mention the two times I didn’t pay because I was rushing to…actually never mind…this may be evidence used against me when I appear in court 
Though this incident is very minute next to the on going injustice many people through out the world experience, it nevertheless serves as a reminder of how an ugly feeling it is!
and admit that you made a mistake?
