Handicapped parking spaces are a hot commodity at this time of year. Hell they are hard to come by almost any time of year. I know that some of you are thunking, no way, I see them open all the time. Trust me that when you need one, there never is one!
The worst place to try and find one is a hospital/doctor's office. Good luck. It's like the disabled people mecca. I guess it makes sense that we are taking up all the places there because I have felt like I lived at a doctor's office.
Many times the parking place isn't configured right. Or actually the one that is available doesn't have the configuration I need. The spaces either has more space on the driver side or the passenger side. Since I don't drive, I need the room on the passenger side. Wish me luck.
It always seems like some very busy places only have like 2 parking places. Shocker: then they are both full. Again all the disabled people are at the same places.
I have been out with my friend Anne more than once and we encountered the following scenario. We are parked in 1 handicapped spot & we see someone else pull into 1 with a handicapped hangtag but they just jump out the car & walk in. Anne has offered to go and beat them up for me because she questions if anything is really wrong with them. I tell her thanks but please don't kill someone in a parking lot because Jeff will have to put us on the news.
I usually follow that with don't worry, they are handicapped, you can't see it because they are mentally handicapped!
Don't forget if you bring me somewhere, I don't mind if you use me to get a good parking space!
