I hate moral dilemmas. That used to be because I didn't have any morals. Then I got me some. Which didn't make the dilemma any more welcome...a dilemma is a dilemma, "an undesirable or unpleasant choice," according to Websters.
All this is over some probably nice person parking their car in my parking space...my paid-for parking space. There are ample other parking spaces all around, clearly marked "VISITOR," which mine isn't.
My moral dilemma is: Do I call Towing or not? I parked in a visitor space, one space over from mine, I've been everywhere I plan to go today so I'm home, it isn't hurting me to let it go. However, the intruding parker does not have a visitor's pass showing the unit number of the person they are visiting, which is required, so they might not even be here in my building. Doing nothing and having something less than wonderful happen because I did nothing now falls on me. I, in effect, give permission by doing nothing.
But what if it's some body's parents just visiting here with no harm intended, no harm coming?...and they walk out to find their car gone? I know the tow people are located in a whole different time zone, and it costs a bucket of money to get your car back, etc., etc., etc.
Geez...I'm doing nothing...purely because it is easier, and so there to moral dilemmas.
Thank You.
