Have You Ever Wondered?

Last week we got a beautiful 92 Mercedes 500SL convertible. Bright red, tan leather and 113,000 miles.  I haven't driven one of these for a while, but they are fun to drive.  This one is also very nice so it can also turn a head or two.  Saturday night my wife and I went to a movie.  As usual the parking lot was full but there was  valet parking available. Have you ever looked at the area around the stand where the valets work.  Usually the high dollar cars are parked right up close so the owners do not have to walk very far.  I told my wife "watch what happens".  She looked at me as if she was thinking "What are you talking about".  As we pulled up to the valet area, there were 5 or 6 cars waiting to be parked.  I noticed that there was an Escalade and another car parked right at the curb and there was a space right in front of it.  As we got out of the car the valet said, Its getting close to 8:00 and we will be leaving about 9:30 so what I will do is park your car right here up front and bring the key back to you so you won't have problems when the movie is over.  That's exactly what he did. The 5 or 6 cars in front of us sat while he moved ours to the place of honor.  I hadn't asked anything special, but I was impressed with what happened.
