Your parking spot: Another unwritten rule in nursing

Do not take my parking spot.

Until next time…

You know how much I love coffee.

The person who took your spot disliked this video...

When I worked at the VA, there was a gated employee parking garage, so we didn't have to worry about the public taking our spots. However, you'll still lose your spot, and sometimes it's someone you know at work. Worse still, someone on your floor!

When i think of parking spots, I think of non-verbal communication. I know they park ONLY there, and I must respect that. Good talk Sean.

My hospital has "volunteer parking" right next to the door. while empolyee parking is like a mile away! I started at this hospital as a volunteer, and now im an RN, and i say, employees deserve that spot for how little we are paid. So i made the executive decision, there are no volunteers on nights, so I dub this, nightshift parking! been booted by security a few times, i just say sorry, park in the employee parking for a few days, then go right back to parking in "nightshift parking".

I have to park in an offsite lot and be shuttled to the hospital. I’m lucky to get a spot at all let alone the same one each day! 😂

I'm totally picking up what you're putting down Sean. I have got my parking spot I park in every single day I work🏥 and you're right throws off your day when somebody else is in it when you're expecting to just Wwhoop 🚗in there! I just assume they didn't get the memo.📝 Lolol😂
Love ya man, keep em' coming!

Haha yep! I think the territorial spot tendency is established in nursing school with seats. #donttakemyseatlinda 😂👌 #dontparkinmyspoteither

2nd level down, 3rd pillar in the middle section, I always back in. I am usually there early so there's always a spot there, but when someone does park there I get miffed

Sean, it’s great when you get that front door service and all. But unless your spot has your name on it .😄....

[Dadxyplusx]

WOW, Sean! That is a whole new level of neurosis, even for you. 🤔😊

But I have worked in facilities that dictate which parking areas you use based upon your shift. There was a dedicated evening shift parking lot that had security stationed within it, and night shift parked right up to building (rear lot, of course). Felt pretty secure and it also made it easier for the plows to work in the winter.

I have more of an area or maybe a "sector". I don't think you've slipped off of the edge, yet...
