I take responsibility for dropping the gate pass but the gate employee, was on a power trip which is a first for me. As an aside, he was smirking as he was shaking his head that he would not open the gate. We have been residents around 14 years and I have never had an experience like this from a Village Employee. I should add that I had just made a round trip to Mayo Clinic and was tired and not prepared for someone who needed attention at my expense. Please no lecturers on responsibilities. I really don't
need that right now!!!  |
We’ll I think maybe you just got the one gate that Scrooge was working. I really think most gate security would of let you in. But I don’t know what gate security are suppose to do or not to do. Personally I don’t think it would of been the end of the world to push the button in the gate shack for you. Guess they must of thought they were a little god! Just make sure you never wave at the security at this gate, & just let this go. Hope everything went well at the Mayo Clinic!
