workaday Wednesday

Whoops — somehow I have frittered away a significant portion of my morning… Instead of work, how about a quick review of Parking Lot Anarchy!!!

The parking lot outside my window is angle parking. Three rows, although one of them is weird? Instead of angle parking like a standard chevron style (>>>>>), it’s straight through (/////). IDK why. But as soon as snow falls, it’s chaos! Madness! It’s parking lot anarchy!

After all, if you can’t see the lines, maybe they’re not even there at all. And the plow driver (while dedicated!) follows a sort of ‘go as fast as possible’ approach.

The two most crucial lessons learned during last winter:

1. Forget the lines. Can’t see ’em, don’t use ’em.

2. Tuck in! The safest place for your car is between or next to other cars. Do not under any circumstances allow your car to be an island!!!

Okay, I better actually go to work now.
