Ok, you know those people who will drive around and around a parking lot for 10 minutes looking for a parking spot in the first 2 rows. I call those "parking lot vultures."
I was pulling out of a prime parking spot at the gym and a vulture was there waiting for me to leave. As I was proceeding out of the lot, I noticed THREE more driving in circles. I'll give the mini-van mom a pass because I know what it is like to herd 2 toddlers, a dufflebag and a diaper bag through a wet, crowded parking lot (much like herding a dozen cats into a filled bathtub--slippery & dangerous for every one involved).
But for the 2 vultures--I had to laugh. Why are they going to the gym if they are unwilling to walk the extra 25 paces from a parking spot a little further away from the door?

My mom is a parking lot vulture.
I love it!
interesting... I would think at the gym the spaces furthest from the door would be most prime. that's funny.
I'm guilty of being a vulture today at the YMCA. I was just making a quick stop thru town on my way back to work and thought I would stop by and get info on memberships etc. We have thought about joining all month long and I thought today I would make an effort. However, it was pouring rain and I didn't want to look like a wet dog going back to work..so I drove around a zillions times to get the first row parking spot. Mom
For some reason the vultures are the worst at the gym, which always cracks me up! Costco is also bad.
