    no, you can wedge a piece of wood to keep the pins in place. when you take off the pads it will start to slowly compress, but you have the time to wedge in a piece of wood...

    what a fucking baby, whiney mother fucking cunt....the finance lady here just bitched at me b/c I only pay $20 to park right next to the building and she has to pay $30 and walk 1 block. I said "Jean, it's b/c our company gives everyone $25 toward parking each month" she was like "ohhhh...well, i don't think we should pay so much for everyone's parking"
