We park together!

At work my friend, BB'sOwner, and I park together in the same parking space. Everytime I get close to the lot and see her car parked sideways waiting for me to join, I crack up. I just think it is the greatest thing!

Of course, people have complained. One person said, "They can't park like that." Why not? "They just can't!" Okay..... Another person complained that they couldn't get into their car with us parked like that. The attendant (who is a great guy, by the way) told that person to just park the other way and that we weren't hurting anything by parking like that.

I have tried for about an hour to post pictures here, but I haven't been able to figure it out. So, here's the link to where they are posted on Picasa:

Some people just like to be sh!t disturbers out of jeolousy. You're parked on an end, so what harm can it do? You should find a giant Cummings Turbo Diesel dually crew cab and jam it right on the line, backed in so the driver's door is right next to the other car.

We haven't asked to change our monthly parking rate for fear the owners will say we can't do it at all. As long as it is just the attendant, I think he'll be cool. So, we just do it for grins and giggles!

The cars are within the lines so that person can complain all they want. I'd be willing to be when they go to the store they're that same idiot that straddles the line so the person next to them can't open their door.

I take it parking is "half price"? That could cause jealousy.
