I Love this, LOL.

Outside Bristol Zoo, in England, there is a parking lot for 150 cars and 8 coaches. It was manned by a very pleasant attendant with a ticket machine charging cars £1 and coaches £5 . This parking attendant worked there solid for all of 25 years.  
 
Then, one day, he just didn't turn up for work.
 
"Oh well", said Bristol Zoo Management - "we'd better ring up City Council and ask them to send a new parking attendant straightaway..."
 
"Err ... no", said Council, "that parking lot is your responsibility."
 
"Err ... no", said Bristol Zoo Management, "the attendant was employed by City Council, wasn't he?"
 
"Err ... NO!" insisted Council.
 
Probably sitting in his villa somewhere on the coast of Spain, is a bloke who had been taking parking lot fees, estimated at £400 per day at Bristol Zoo for the last 25 years. Assuming 7 days a week, this amounts to just over £3.6 million  
 
And no one even knows his real name!!
