Thou shall not park in someone else's space...

[EscapeRocks]

,,,especially a covered space that one pays for.

At my townhouse I have a garage, and I also pay for a covered parking spot for my daughter.

We came home yesterday to find someone in my space.

The office put a note on their car and gave them 24 hours.

The tow truck just left.

Nice car too. Won't they be surprised?

Right around Christmas....couldn't cut the guy a break?

I don't blame you a bit. They had 24 hrs to move their car and didn't. Too bad, so sad.

Right around Christmas & the guy, even with over 24 hours in a spot someone else pays for, couldn't respect someone else's stuff?

Would you guys be ok with someone parking in your drive way for over 24 hours? After all, it IS Christmas...

I agree with the fact that you are paying for the spot, but it could be someone from out of town who doesn't realize that they are taking an "paid for" spot. Since they drove into town, they might not make it back to their car for a couple of days...hence the 24hr notice not being enough.

I agree also. Christmas or not, when you have limited parking, and as a resident, you have to PAY to make sure you have a space{s) when you or family come home...it is quite unnerving to have someone parked in your space, especially when you paid for it!

That was one of the all time PITA events that I dreaded (among others of course) about apartment living. Coming home after a hard day, sitting in gridlock to get home, having the gates be broken and a long line awaiting someone to come fix it so you could just get IN the lot, then pulling up to your paid, reserved, numbered spot, and someone is parked in it!

I think 24 hours notice was actually kinda "generous" on ER's part.

I usually have someone parking in my driveway for like 4 days around Christmas, so I guess I am okay with it.
