Parking in a hot day
It’s been damn hot around here the past two weeks; everyday over 90 degrees out there, and I have to walk at least 5-7 minutes one way to get to my car at a surface parking lot for work. I don’t usually sweat much. In fact, 80 degree is my perfect temperature. Yet now I am alway sweating from walking and walking and walking.. Damn the weather.
Company parking lot is huge. Not as big as Disneyland or Magic Mountain parking lot, but pretty big as a surface parking lot. It’s as big as some shopping malls, except longer aisles, with no trees and no shades, and constant construction going on right next to it. The noice and, dust clearly does not add any pleasure in parking there.
As if that is not enough, the parking lot is always 90% full by 9am every work day. That can explain part of the reasons why I need to walk so far. But with such a huge lot, you would expect big spaces? NO! Most of them are compact spots that a mini van or truck can easily step on both sides of the lines. My solara has huge doors unfortunately, which makes parking at tight spots even more painful… If it’s difficult for me to get out, you know the space is tight…
I think I will just blame the weather…
Hi there!! I was surfing the other day and ran across your site! I thought I was the only one that felt that way about our parking lot. It’s funny because if you get to work early enough, it’s cool and you may go the whole day without sweating. But when you have to walk to your car at the end of the day, you end up sweating anyway. UGH!! Personally, I can’t wait ’til winter!
Nice post mam…Change of weather is inevitable…Nice to divulge ur experience.
