TRAINER wheels.
A missing 2 year-old toddler in
Jacksonville Florida was reported
missing by distraught parents
who were relieved when police
delivered their little darling back
home from her driving excursion,
complete with a $4.00 “ticket”
fine for using the road without a
license or number plates.
She had taken her toy white
convertible roadster, a first-time
experience for her, on a little jaunt
through a parking lot bumping
into a few cars along the way,
according to ABC News.
The fake ticket which the police
issued in fun as a public relations
exercise, became a source of
further amusement when the
toddler used it to create a scribble
work of art.
NOT so healthy compensation...
It might pay to take a lesson in
public relations from the story
that Carl and Barbara Becker
from Virginia have been offered
free meals for life after grappling
with the customer service at
McDonald’s.
The couple, in their 80s, wrote a
letter to the editor which detailed
their expulsion from a McDonald’s
in Culpeper for sitting too long,
WTTG Fox 5 reported.
The story went viral and a
much savvier local restaurant
owner, Shawn Moss of Shawn’s
Smokehouse BBQ, offered the
couple a free meal one day a
week, as well as free coffee on
Wednesdays to all seniors and
veterans, the station reported.
McDonald’s offered the couple
two small coffees as an apology,
which Mrs Becker sent back.
AUSSIE pride?
Two Australians have applied
(in vain) for the job of hangman
for Sri Lanka, following the last
executioner quitting once he saw
the gallows, Reuters reported.
One was a system administrator
and the other had not mentioned
a job, the publication said.
