Still There

[Under a bridge]

The parking attendants are back, at least during the day shift. Also, the old no-tech manual payment station was covered with a sign and now there’s an automated system in place for people to use during the unattended hours. (All major credit cards are accepted.)

The attendants’ uniform involves a red polo shirt now; and that tie remains untouched, tucked away on a hook behind the door of the attendant’s booth, fading and decaying. The polo shirts might only be a summer uniform. If they revert to the white shirt/black tie combo, then the tie might find its way back into occasional use again some day.
