You know the problem with bad cops? They make the other 5% look bad.

Being told where to park sucks. Careful what you ask for; you might get it.

Being allowed to park for extended periods on private property is a gift. Accept it as such, and be thankful.

The written word:

These are the designated parking spots where employees and managers can park - we don't want them parking in close spots near the entrance doors for these should be for customers shopping in our facilities - This was a company program we implemented about 6 months ago..

Well another reason not to go to T/A. If they are concern with employee parking over the parking of customers, it shows the contempt for the customer. Have the employees park in an area like where the trucks park.

I think you missed the point Greg, the employess were parking within 50 feet of the door, thereby making parking for YOU, the customer to be elsewhere. Maybe in the back of the lot.

Apparently corporate didn't think this was customer friendly. I get it.

After all expediters are not the only customers they cater too! <snicker>

So, at the Laredo TA, the same identical "E" sometimes means "employee" and sometimes means "expediter" and sometimes means "either" or "everyone" or, maybe its a grade like almost failing (for the worst parking spaces along the perimeter). Or maybe its just plain STUPID!

The real story is the coporate policy that established the "E" program has been changed locally into whatever the local manager wants and we expediters are left wondering what clowns thought this up and then bailed on the resulting circus it created when local managers found problems (like straight trucks backing into fences and knocking them over).

The reason that most people move around the parking lot is to try and get a better wifi signal from the business that we buy our service from.

Yes that is true I have done that as well as trying to stay in the shade but i have and will never park up in front of the building. I remember seeing an expediter at the ta in Georgia and he parked right(backed in) in front of the windows to the resturant with his back doors open for eveyone to see what he was upto and he was parked there all day
