I work for an organization that is growing rapidly. Yay us. The downside is that what was already a bad parking situation has turned really, REALLY ugly. There are only so many parking spaces. There are way more vehicles than spaces. There is no public transportation in the area where I work. Carpooling is pretty popular, but even THAT doesn’t leave enough spaces for all the cars. Each year I pay $ for a parking permit to park in a reserved lot. Every morning, the lot is parked full of cars that do NOT have the permit to park there, but security doesn’t ticket them because THEY HAVE NO WHERE ELSE TO GO.
I have to go to work an hour early EVERY DAY just to get a parking space.
I need to develop a better attitude about this and come up with a plan to deal with the frustration because winter is on the way, and then there will be even FEWER spaces available.
Help. Me.

I have some ideas but they would probably land you in jail so never mind…
Comment by KathyHowe September 21, 2008 @ 8:09 pmYou could get an older model car and not care about a few dings — that might land you in jail — never mind.
Comment by Bill September 24, 2008 @ 2:48 pmPerhaps a chalk outline in one of the parking spots is just the ticket???
