VIOLATION!

So, the new parking system at work has been remarkably awesome. I mean, I see a couple of cars nearly every day parking in the permit area without a permit, but really, it's been awfully sweet.

Unfortunately, I've only seen one of these bad boys. And I never did find out what happened to the car.


The funny thing is, I tried to take a picture of a car with a stick similar to this in the parking ramp after I left the gym tonight. Except it was on the car's back, driver's side ... quarter panel? It was yellow and smaller, too. Alas, the photo was blurry.

Making the most out of their last opportunity.

Today was the last day of asshole parking at our office building. Didn't seem like anyone was really trying to get a jump start on the new rules today. Take these jackasses, for example:


I mean, I guess I could see that there was a little bit of a change. When I went into the ramp this morning, there was only one car parked where the two cars in the picture above are parked. It's those two cars and two more behind them, and the same thing on the rows you would see if you had been in my car looking out the passenger window.

That's eight cars each day that are going to need to find somewhere else to park every day. I'm concerned it's going to be an epic clusterfuck tomorrow. I should really have just planned to work from home. Then again, I'm working a half day and should be showing up at least a bit earlier than I normally do.

None of us at the office can really see how this new situation is going to work out, but ... well, I guess all I can do is show up and see what happens, right?

My goldmine might be ending.

As of November 1, the management company that runs our office building will have new parking procedures. We all got parking permits on Friday. I really hope I remember to use mine. Given my obsession with people parking like assholes, though, it shouldn't be all that tough to remember.

There will allegedly be more permit spots than permits, so we should never have to worry that we will have no option, since our overflow lot is gone. They will allegedly be tough on parking scofflaws, with a towing company patrolling the lots/ramps to haul away the following:


So that means douches like these people, parking in the fire lanes, will get their asses towed. I wonder if they're going to ease into it, or just tow the fuck out of all the idiots who think the rules do not apply to them.



I wonder how they'll deal with asshats like the the guy in the picture below. He's not taking up two spots in the traditional sense. He's clearly in his spot properly. However, he has parked his big-ass motherfucking truck in a "compact only" space, which means no one can park in that other "compact only" spot.


It's too bad I'm only working a half day on Tuesday. I was considering just taking a lawn chair out to watch all of the towing.

This is the douche that drove me to starting this blog.

At least, I'm pretty sure this is the douche. I'd say at least once a week I see this jackass parking in the same spot, but sometimes on the third floor of the ramp as opposed to the second. 


This spot doesn't have nearly as much snow over it as the previous entry does. So, there is even less of an excuse. But there is no excuse for even the previous dickface.

Sorry for the blurry pictures. I was heading to my car to head home and I was kind of in a hurry.
