Yea, a little while ago I told the security guard what happened and he is going to keep a look out for my car. I told the CEO who is cool with me and some other nurses and he said there is no hospital rule that says I cant double park. He said if there is any damage the hospital would pay for it. He typed it up signed it up and I signed it!! ![Grin](https://ls1tech.com/forums/images/smilies/LS1Tech/gr_grin.gif)

You expect us to believe the Hospital CEO gives a crap enough about your car to tell you, "Sure, you can have 2 spots," especially in his packed parking lot, then, give you something in writing saying they'll pay for any damage to your car while it's in the parking lot??? Seriously, am I the only one not buying this???
Look, I understand you love your car. Hell, we all love our cars, but you need to grow up and stop being so selfish. If you're talking about the Hospital I think you're talking about (Sweetwater & HWY 59), everytime I go there, the lots are so full, that people have to park on Town Center Blvd. It's been a few months since I've been by there, so things may have changed, but if you are in fact doing this in a crowded lot, then shame on you. Of course, if I am mistaken and this is a different hospital with plenty of extra parking, and you're doing this in the back of the lot, then more power to you. But, if this is where I think it is, then maybe you should be one of the people parked out on the street. At least that way you don't have to worry about any door dings,.... now sideswipes.... that's a different story.

And I agree with corney. If the parking lot is packed, its pretty damn dick to take up 2 spots. Now if theres plenty of room, then it shouldnt be a big deal.

I know here at IAH, if you double park in one of our parking garages your car will be towed. No matter how many spots are available. Most places of business tell their employees to park at the back of the lot to save the up-front spaces for their customers.

Quit double parking. Especially in crowded parking lots. Your car is not more special than anyone else's, and it DOES make you look like a douchebag when you double park, doesn't matter what you drive.
Be glad you didn't earn some free pinstripes instead of those notes, or a slashed tire or two.

Maybe most of us misread her post but I can't find the reference. Does she park far away where there is nobody around for like 20 yards and there is not a detriment to the parking area or is she double parking where people around are already having to park farther away? I'm reading she that she parks way in the back where there might not be as bad of a situation with parking.

Doesnt matter how far you parked from the building. I dont recall ANY hospital having extra spaces during the day (not even in the little *** town I live in). As others have said, you are lucky that you dont have to have your car repainted or towed to get some new tires on.
And dont be so naive to think some security guard driving a golf cart around in 100+ degree heat is going to give 2 ***** about a car that got 2 deserving notes. Bottom line here, stop double parking. Its not right to make sick people walk far if you are taking up an extra spot. If you dont like door dings, get yourself a beater and drive that to work.

The worst my friends and i have done is there was a completly full parking lot and this guy quadruple parked in the front... So we hooked up the winch and moved his car out of the four spots. lmao

Read her other post on LS1GTO. After reading that last night and looking at the post times, I was pretty sure it was BS. But, I was bored and wanted to see how far she would take it.
LS1Tech - "There isnt enough space at work to park way way back"
LS1GTO - "Im like the only 1 that parks at the back and there are spots EVERYWHERE."

That would be a priceless video moment! I would pay to see the reaction on the owner's face and the curiosity to see if he/she thinks twice about doing that.

Sometimes one goes in or around 5:00 p.m and it's still blistering hot outside. I'm sure many of us have had a night shift and cracked the windows because we wanted to keep the heat out of the car even if we knew we would be returning back in 8 hours. I'm neutral on this but just thinking of other aspects of this scenario like the rest of you gumshoes are doing. :wink:
"I had my windows cracked bc of the heat and as I...................."

Heels, Don't be surprised if you get flooded with citations from YPLA now. Oh... and BTW... Quit parking like an *******.
