Hmmm...discouraging development. A truck is parked there now and the TL is nowhere to be seen. Mighty wierd. I walk past that spot every day. There have only ever been two scenarios: two normal cars parked there (or trucks) or the TL. Makes me think whoever owns the TL drove his truck today.

There's enough room between the truck and the malibu (MAXX!!1!) to park my car but I don't know if that's a good idea. I'd be blocking the malibu and the trucks drivers door. Would be kinda funny though, since the malibu driver parked crappy too. :chuckles:

after further review of the spot. it looks like they painted a new line on the new pavement to the far left, but still left space inbetween that and the old line on the old pavement. it also looks like the truck is fairly close to the curb / new line, which then makes it seem like there is not enough room for a car to comfortably fit between the truck and malibu. this is probably why there is no line to make two spots, because there is not the "required" amount of space.

you should now put a sticker on the malibu for parking even worse than the tl did in the first place.

yeah yeah yeah, I know, he's not inconveniencing me. I get there at the crack of dawn so I always get a good spot. It's the principle people! It's like seeing someone cut in line when you're not in the line or seeing someone cut someone else off on the freeway.

Eh, at this point, I'm just having fun messing with him. I think I'll park sideways in the spot tomorrow just for kicks and giggles. I've got a few coworkers in it now, one's that do actually have to park in the sticks or in the parking lot across the street because some jackass takes two spots.

Say what you will. I'm parking sideways in the spot tomorrow. Will have pics.

You could be right, I considered this yesterday with all the previous comments. I'm sure there's some sort of "standard" involved in parking spots and maybe this spot was a little too small for two spots. It's the situation though. If any of you were here you'd know what I'm talking about. There's so little parking, that every bit matters. Not a day goes by I don't hear someone complain about the parking situation.
