Pullstart 62,841 #1 Posted April 21, 2023 I am a “mobile repair service” today, swapping a headlight bulb for a lady working here at the park store. Even though the lines were repainted straight, they still park (mostly) angled 2 9 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ebinmaine 67,456 #2 Posted April 21, 2023 Gonna needa black stripe the old lines. Glow stripe the new lines. Put up about 784 signs. 9 lights. Some aisle dividers. And they'll STILL park the old way..... 2 5 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
wallfish 16,994 #3 Posted April 21, 2023 It looks like a tic tack toe board and a complete guessing game on which lines they want anyone to use. Ultimate responsibility is the owner and they probably got what they paid for from the cheap guy off craigslist. 6 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Achto 27,570 #4 Posted April 21, 2023 (edited) Yep, I'd take one look at those lines & parallel park right in front of the door. Edited April 21, 2023 by Achto 10 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

squonk 41,080 #7 Posted April 21, 2023 (edited) We used to have a painter at the Hospital. We had him paint the old boiler room, Did a beautiful job. Floors & boilers like a Ford gray and all the gas lines safety yellow. Place looked brand new. a few hours after the un-veiling the boiler operator calls me to come down to the boiler room. He had a 5 gal bucket on the floor where he would catch the mist drippings while he was getting a water sample for the daily test. The bucket was empty. He lifted the bucket up and the painter had painted around the bucket! Edited April 22, 2023 by squonk 2 6 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

953 nut 55,199 #12 Posted April 22, 2023 I remember coming up on one of these pavement marking test areas just after sundown. I wasn't tired but it did wake me up a bit. 1 4 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

The funny thing, is two people on the right parked straight, then two people came in hot and parked at the old angle on the left 1 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
953 nut 55,199 #14 Posted April 22, 2023 I guess as long as they stay in the parking lot and don't make it into a "Drive Through" store you can't be too critical of their parking. What's up with the lines going in the wrong direction? Did the VAPE store put something special in for the painters? 1 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
