When I was working at Stanford Medical Center in California, we have a job orientation about the company standards, safety regulations, policies & procedures, and of course " the parking space issues, where to park your car and where not to park your car." and how much parking permits costs. lol...let's see it costs like $50.00-$100.00 it depends how long do want it to last or just renewals it costs a lot.

The parking permits must be visible by hanging it on the mirror or stick it on the car window so that the security can check the car if it belongs to the employee or somebody Else's. The plate number / Vin number must be matched with the employees name.
Well, what if the parking area is full? No spaces? Where will I park my car? Ugh!

One day I arrived in the employee designated parking areas drove around back and forth many times looking for a parking spaces let see how many times...i don't remember...i waited for a few minutes if someone might come and go out, try to my luck for a parking space available...yes I their someone left and i finally parked my car in that space. When I came back from work, I noticed a ticket on my car stuck to the car windshield wipers so i read it and it says fine $45.00 for no parking permit on the car...! What the um mm! After all that wait for few minutes for a parking space and now i got a parking ticket.

Well...shucks!Yes lucky for a space but ugh gotta pay fine lol!
