People can not park. People are horrible at parking. I may be working to become an engineer but by golly I thought people had the slightest of common sense. Also I love Tetris, so Engineer + Tetris + No patience me working Parking = H E Double Hockey Sticks**.
PS. Anyone ever work parking?

I spend my summers at
The Owls Head Transportation Museum.* I work there full time pushing paper, and volunteer on the weekends and weeknights restoring antique and replica aircraft. Every summer there are 10ish event weekends, and museum volunteers do just about everything... except the parking. It's simply too frustrating, so it is contracted out.
I had the pleasure of spending a good hour with an unfortunate fellow who had been blocked in despite the efforts of the parking folks. Needless to say, it ruined his afternoon.
