'Bred Crumbs

Parade of 'Holes

I live in a 140-plus-unit building that has, at most, 11 guest parking places on weekends. Four of these will be taken up for months by the construction company doing major renovations on our building.

These spaces are clearly marked as reserved for our building, with guest permits required. But that didn't stop anyone who was checking out an open house at the guest-space-less building next door, many of whom proceeded to park wherever the hell they wanted: our few guest spaces, the fire lane, whatever. It made me wish I had signs prepared to slap on their windshields, reading:

DEAR OPEN HOUSE VISITOR:

THANKS FOR IGNORING OUR PARKING RULES.

WE CAN'T WAIT TO HAVE YOU AS A NEIGHBOR!
