and as someone who used to have a bloomingdales and macy's discount- it's against the rules of the company to share it with your friends
and if you get caught you get fired...... unless of course your Uncle is on the board of directors.
that's a cheap shot
come on folks!
Oh c'mon, that was funny!!
it is funny, but I guess based on prior posts... well, you know

agreed- Speeding is dangerous- (coming from someone who lost 3 people within two years to car accidents) BUT, how many of us can say that we NEVER speed? She was just venting about getting a ticket- something a lot of us would do. I am sure she realizes that speeding is dangerous
Just my 2 cents here, I am not criticizing anyone, and yes I have gone over the speed limit but I think the vent was not the speeding persay, but the trying to get out of a ticket was the issue.
I am sure that you were just keeping up with traffic beth, and you just happened to get caught. I think the point of those who "criticized" was that the law is the law. What if someone was going 150mph but had a relative that was a cop. Would that person get out of that ticket because of family connections...
I guess people just get frustrated when they hear about "working the system." Maybe its out of jealousy or genuine concern, but I think THAT was the point of those who posted what they did.
yes, you're right
see my later post

I don't want to start a war here, but I have a feeling that people are more upset with Beth "getting away with it" more so than with the speeding, PBA card, family connection, etc.
Would I use my PBA cards- HECK YEAH! ALL OF US WOULD.
But, like I said, I think people are more fired up with her "getting away with it"...like the rules apply to some people, but not others.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
you're probably right
And for the record- I got one speeding ticket last year- first time ever- it sucked- and if I could have "gotten out of paying" I would have... come on...how many wouldn't?
I think you wrote your later post while I was writing mine

I find it amazing how pety some can be. She got a ticket, used her card (why else have it) and she may even have to get the points, get over it. She didnt kill someone and get away with it. It a speeding ticket folks. Not the end of the world.

What is this high school?? 
"How come I didn't get a brand new card for graduation and she did"...
Thats what this sounds like
I don't know what to tell ya. It's just my interpretation of why some people feel the way they do.
I haven't gotten a ticket in 7 years. I have 3 PBA cards that are all crusty and old because I haven't pulled them out of my glove compartment...It's been a few years since I've even been pulled over (knock on wood)
So, I guess I can't really weigh in one way or the other.

speeding is dangerous, dicount shopping is not!
so you always go exactly the speed limit?
nope. But If I get a ticket I deserve it, will I be pizzed.. yeah. But I will pay it or fight it like every other law breaker.
If you want to handle it that way, fine. Just dont flaunt it without expecting to be called on it.
I don't care if you call me on it- I am happy to say that I have a PBA and I use it - the Police give them out- so your problem should be with the police not with me for using it
and if that makes me a bad person- then so be it!
see my first post, it bothers me that the rules dont apply for cops too, not just family and friends.

Re: I got a speeding ticket this morning!
I am really shocked how people have nothing better to do then judge people for using a PBA card, she had it, she used it, you wouldn't ok end of story.. why does she has to abide by your rules?

no its not the end of the world, and I am not losing sleep over it. More than trying to get out of the ticket, I just think its funny that she put it out there and then started to get upset when people called her on it.
If I told you all I was prostitute, I dont have a leg to stand on when you call me a sl*t. (Not berating any prostitues here, I know they are just using what they have to do the best they can)

I just want to know, if you got pulled over for speeding and the cop was nice to let you go with a warning, would you say " No officer give me the ticket, I broke the law"

ETA- just pointing that out

I think that's the point its just a speeding ticket, no one got hurt she relized she was wrong and my point is who wouldnt try and get out of it??? I know Ive dropped a tear or two and pulled my PBA card. Who really wants the points or to pay. I just think it got out of hand for something so dumb. There is so much other more important things ( no offense Beth) to be concerned with in this world, that Beth using or trying to get a way with a ticket is ridiculous. JMO
