Outage parking and the parking lot sharks

<< < (3/3)

rumrunner:
The abuse of handicapped placards is a sore spot with me.  We had one house pipefitter at BFN who borrowed his mother's car (with handicapped tag) for outages.  Jerk.

Another is those who decide they need to take up two desperately needed parking spaces by bringing their boat or bushhog and tractor to work on a trailer. 

The sharks....I don't care about playing games with them but they sit there and burn a gallon of gas just to shave 20 seconds off their walk.

I have to agree with all that is being said.  My philosophy is simply this.  I arrive 30 to 40 minutes early (have always done this).  I start near the "front".  If I'm lucky there will be a person leaving early or there may actually be an empty space available, if not I just continue the circuit until I come to the FIRST available space and park my bubba truck there.  No worries, no rushing in through security.  I still have time to fix some hot tea and relax before the pre shift briefing.  'Nuff said.
