The barter system alive and well in Westfield Woden?

Saw this yesterday in ground floor toilets of Westfield Woden, near the cinemas.

It seems you can pay for parking with a squirt of urine instead of coins – the barter system alive and well!

Yeah it’s ridiculous. Has anyone ever asked why the hell school gets far more holidays per year than work?? It’s a problem not just confined to Canberra, it’s a worldwide problem. Schoolchildren are indulged WAAAYYYY too many holidays, even university students get less time off.

No, just you.

Where have merging skills and etiquette gone?

They haven’t gone anywhere. They never made it to Canberra in the first place.

I would suggest that pissing in the auto pay station may result in a boot like an electric fence…

It took me 40 minutes to escape, I was concerned I would exceed the 2 hour (?) free parking limit.

I’m afraid that if I ask if you’re APS from a nearby department, I’ll be outed as a troll. So I won’t ask, and will just presume.

You’re new to Canberra, aren’t you?

Surely a comment on Westfield extracting the urine/taking the pi$$ is in order.

That is not the only thing out of order at Westfield Woden.

Last Friday afternoon they closed the second exit gate from the DJ’s car park, and the traffic banked up to the top floor. It was worse than the worst Christmas Eve imaginable.

It took me 40 minutes to escape, I was concerned I would exceed the 2 hour (?) free parking limit.

Believe me, no merging of traffic allowed, all for one and one for all. Where have merging skills and etiquette gone?

Westfield Woden have lost me. Forever!

Dear god!

Do you think you’ll be OK?
