Parking lots and shopping carriages

lucius · 11-30-2011, 10:11 AM

i took this picture hoping not only to catch this parking lot attendant allowing shopping carriages to crash on the side of this S.U.V but capture the license plate as well. Unfortunately the picture isn't very clear. I know it's not a BMW but that could have been any one of our cars. I couldn't get into it with the attendant because I was pressed for time.

Wow people are lame....

PINeely · 11-30-2011, 10:19 AM

That's a first. When I've asked the attendants how it's going it is always "oh, alright, just trying to get these carts up before they hit someone's car."

Another reason to park in no man's land.

Oh its no BMW, but it is a Lincoln Navigator that costs more new than our 335's. I'd be effin pissed if that were my vehicle.

I would also feel obligated to take that picture to management at the store if I caught that on camera.

Also I'm curious exactly what happened? Did he allow the carts to run into the vehicle at speed and you snapped the shot at that exact moment, or were they left to rest against the vehicle while he got more carts or what?

My gf and I were getting something at Target real quick. Then my gf says out loud, "Now I see why you always want to park so far away", as we both witnessed a parking lot attendant irresponsibly pushed a group of carriages onto that S.U.V. My guess was that the parking lot attendant didn't want those group of carriages to roll while he was in the process of gathering other carriages.

I snapped the photo in order to capture the plate of that vehicle and that moment.

Next time I visit that Target location I will bring it up to the store manager. If nothing is done, I'll bring this up with corporate.

I would've been a (fill in the blank) and showed the photo to his manager.

but I love Target...

look how casual he is...damn scary

ksp205 · 12-01-2011, 08:03 AM

South Shore plaza? That's the worst parking lot to have a Target. There are no aisles for people to run their carts back and forth and the return carriages are in the oddest places. It's a disaster.

mashimarho · 12-01-2011, 08:06 AM

I park in the farthest corner.

Then, some douche in a saturn ion parks next to me.

haha ditto.

I think people just like filling in empty spaces, or they cant drive so they use the car they park next to as a gauge of parking job.

I Always park in the most secluded spot

richster77 · 12-01-2011, 10:13 PM

I've been extremely careful by always parking far away however just last week I was in a rush and saw a spot that was close to store entrance. Since I was planning on being in and out of the home depot fairly quickly I took the gamble. Went in saw huge lines and left right away. Came out and saw that the car that was parked to my right had already pulled out. Checked out passenger door and 'OH CRAP!' It's about the width of my thumb. Lesson permanently learned.
