It's a fake. They photoshopped the car in there.

You can tell because it's not a BMW.

Surely the guy who put the heli-pad there is the one needing a good shoeing ?

The car lines up with the parking spot ahead of it. Loose parking brake?

Helipads aren't sloped, it's overflow parking. Someone thought that putting cover sheets on their TPS reports was more important than moving their car when the call went out.

While we're at it, I took this one last night. Her time is so valuable that she couldn't park illegally in the handicap spots 50 feet farther away like normal people do. Big time saver, too- I was walking from my car when she pulled into the lot and she was already in the building by the time I got to his point.

No, I meant a normal asshole would have parked in the handicap spots. But that's not good enough for a super asshole. She's got to find somewhere better to park.

I think they probably lost the "Moral Compass" app on their iPad - the one strapped to the wheel of course.
