Don't Be an Asshole
The Stanley Cup of Douche-bagery
..... Parking in spots designated for handicapped persons when one is not handicapped or has any handicapped plates, stickers, or permits with their car.
My work building in Santa Monica has a whole plethora of able-bodied douchebags who park in the handicapped parking spots every day. Many MANY people in our building have complained to the parking attendants over this and to the building management office, but nothing changes.
On most days, all of the handicapped spots in our 4-level parking garage are taken; out of all of these spots (2 spots on three levels, 4 spots+ on the top level), only about 2 of the cars are actually being driven by handicapped-permited folks.
Several people in our building (including myself and others from my office) have also complained to the Santa Monica Parking Office (which happens to be located in our building as well). We are told that because our building & parking garage are private property that they have no authority over the garage. (Although they share our disdain.)
I've witnessed actual handicapped people driving around in circles in our lot looking for any close spot to the elevators since all of them are always taken.
On the parking level that I'm assigned to, there are 3 cars that usually share the two handicapped spots closest to the elevator. (While many other unreserved spots go empty.) Two of these cars are nice, new Mercedes. I guess the owners of these cars feel the are better than everyone else and their cars deserve a spot away from all the "regular" autos.
The other car that uses the handicapped spot belongs to one of the biggest douchebags I've ever been unfortunate enough to come across in my lifetime. He drives an early 90's gold SUV with a Christmas wreath attached to his front bumper, year-round. He's probably about mid-40's to early 50's white guy. Not only does this guy abuse the handicapped parking spots, but he also:

Not only does this guy abuse the handicapped parking spots, but he also:
- drives about 75 m/hr through the garage
- almost runs down someone on a daily basis (he's barely missed me about 3 times)
- screams obscenities at anyone who questions his behavior, asks him to slow down, etc...
Ahhh yes, welcome to the American workforce.
Stay tuned to this blog... I'm going to start photographing the above said douchebag's illegally parked cars and start posting them here online.
