MAN: Well, this morning I it in front of Lacey Hall.

WOMAN: Let me check our records. Ah, it appears your car was in a only zone.

MAN: Yeah I know, but the parking spaces were all taken and I had to find a place so I could get easy to my classes. 

WOMAN: Uh huh, but since you don’t have a faculty parking , your car was towed

MAN: Okay, uhm, how do I get my back?

WOMAN: Well, when a has to be towed, the owner must pay for the towing and storage fees before the car can be taken. And I’m to say there’s also a parking fine.

MAN: And how much will all that be?

WOMAN: Uhm, the fee is ninety dollars and there’s a storage fee of ten dollars per day. So it’d be a good idea to pick up your car today, if possible. The parking fee is fifty, but if you pay within days, the fine is reduced to twenty.
