True in some places by power hungry bosses.

I always consider customers right,

In parking my philosophy is "the customer (violator) is always wrong".
:)
I get complaints from violators for being cited when its clearly their
fault: didn't put money in a meter, parked where they didn't belong, etc.
If I am at fault, for whatever reason (meter not working, their permit
not visible but have it, etc) I take the ticket back. Otherwise go talk to
the people in the office.
Sometimes photo's are taken for questionable violations:
"It wasn't marked handicap". According to this photo the sign is right there in the photo.
"I had my HC hang tag up". Not according to this photo.
"It wasn't marked no parking". The sign is right there in the photo.

I'm humble enough to know I can be wrong, so I'll never call someone a liar & cheat

I am also humble enough to know when I make a mistake and correct it.
I also know that people lie to try to get out of the fine.
One of the things I say in the office when someone has been complaining
about a ticket: Another of my many unhappy dissatisfied customers? :)

Videos, pictures, and recordings, don't lie...unless they've been altered.

One word...BUSTED!! <G>

I am also humble enough to know when I make a mistake and correct it.

I could say something, but discretion is the better part of valor. <G>

I also know that people lie to try to get out of the fine.

Or like the deal with "The Three Stooges". Conditions are great for hunting here, as there's a sign that says "Fine For Hunting". <G>

That's about it. :P

Joe,

Those have proven many people innocent or guilty.

Sounds like Nancy Pelosi saying "she was set up" at that hair salon.

One day a woman stormed in complaining she was NOT in a handicap
space, she would not do anything like that and demanded the ticket be voided.
Rule number in the parking office: Do do storm into the office
demanding anything.

You ought to have that as a sign. <G>

The photos were pulled up and there was her car, in a clearly marked
HC space (signs, blue lines, little man on the toilet (what we call the wheelchair icon) along with her car. Plus, and here's the kicker, I
had also gotten her in the shot getting somethi

Looks like she also got the last part of your message. :P

As I like to say, I am the last person to admit I was wrong. :)

You sound like Arthur Fonzarelli. <G>

As Steve Allen said on his 1960s show where a remote camera was
showing a street scene with a loading zone sign in front of a bar "A loading zone, lets go in and get loaded".

Sounds reasonable. :P

I found a sign on a local Facebook page that I swiped and took to the
office once, but it disappeared.

That should be: she had also gotten her in the shot getting something out
of her back seat and wearing the same clothes, since the picture had been
taken only shortly before.

At least she wasn't like the meme of the nude woman who went into the alterations department of the store (you only saw her from the back side), wanting her birthday suit altered (it was all wrinkled).

... I just got lost in thought. It was unfamiliar territory.
