Parking Drama

[Crazyjoker77]

Okay so we got a new guy at work and is causing some drama over parking. He is saying that a spot we have been using for parking for over 2 years in now a illegal parking spot and is threatening to have the next vehicle towed that parks there... I made a very quick sketch to give you a idea of whats going on.

now hes saying that the brown/blue car is illegally parked even though there is a no parking sign to the right of the car saying no parking right of sign and the car is left of the sign... and there is room to the left of the mech room door to put the sign there if they want the whole area to be no parking.

as well he has absolutely NO problem with the 2 brown cars even though they are not marked parking spaces (no lines and no parking blocks)

its not a huge deal but im really bored and would like to be able to tell him to pound sound on his next rage without a fear of someone getting a ticket...

I'm not certain, but isn't there a law against parking directly in front of an exterior door?

So everyone hates him now?

You know what to do, OP

We go through this with our condo sometimes - people parking in yellow-curb-marked areas of the lanes (no parking)....however there are locations which are unmarked and un-impeding of any traffic flow - which would be totally legal to park in.

Your co worker is trying to get on someones bad side, but he fails at eing correct. If the vehicle is essentially blocking a wall (door is not used) and there are no signs or painted areas, then he can pound sand.

This is private property as well (im guessing) so only management can authorize towing.

I was thinking the exactly same thing.

[Stealth22]

New guy stirring up drama?

Someone wants to get fired...

[Kona9]

He doesn't have a leg to stand on.

[swak]

Ive been there many times with new employees....

Tell him to get fucked.
It seems that these types of people are getting more prominent in the working world. Ive experienced a good handful of these guys trying to make a point, only to piss me off in the end.

Why can't people just sit back, and learn to do things then go from there?
I just left my last job (for irrelevant reasoning), but i was showing a new guy the ropes, then i go to do my job and get him to do the grunt work, then he pulls a "no i'll do this, you can do that (referring to me doing the shit job giving him the better one". Nope buddy... Doesn't work that way :guns:
I fucking hate new guys like that

/Off Topic Rant


... But just continue parking there, whats he gonna do

[btimbit]

If he's threatening to have it towed, sounds like someone working ABOVE OP... Probably trying to assert themselves? Sounds really dumb to have a tizzy over.

[Disoblige]

lol he better be working above OP, otherwise that's just retarded.

[CapnCrunch]

Spray paint some lines on the ground.

LOL. Genius.

[heavyD]

Honestly why don't you just take it up with management? Tell them that the guy is threatening to tow employees vehicles. If management doesn't have a problem with that you are probably SOL but if they do then your problem is solved.

[JRSC00LUDE]

Do the heavyD way or send your sketch to parking authority and ask if this can be considered a legal parking spot or not.

[Canmorite]

Tell him to what?

Does he own the property? Its pretty hard to get a tow truck to just tow someone without proper signage.

[reborn_euro]

Is the brown/blue car blocking proper/easy access into the mech room infront of it. Does the new employee require a level of accessibility for equipment or such?
It might not be an issue with the law, it might be more, the new guy doesn't know you all and likes to do his job right, while the old guy doing whatever tasks involved went out of his way to convinience brown/blue??

This is hypothetical ofcourse.

[hurrdurr]

lol at pound sound.

New guy sounds like a fag, treat him as such

Good ol' urban dictionary.

"Hurr durr" is the sound of laughter coming from someone with half a brain.

He ran outside to stop his car from getting towed, forgot to close IE and got fired for being on Beyond during work hours.

True story, I made it up myself.
