I've always thought that parallel parking was my main talent.
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
I will say that growing up as a kid in an urban environment and having lived in cities all my life, the one achievement that everyone can look forward to is getting the perfect parking spot.
I can parallel park pretty well - I'm a great driver.
No one likes a show-off, but if parallel parking was an Olympic sport, I would get gold, no probs.
Parallel parking is desirable for two reasons: parked cars create a physical barrier and psychological buffer that protects pedestrians on the sidewalk from moving vehicles; and a rich supply of parallel parking can eliminate the need for parking lots, which are extremely destructive of the civic fabric.
Now that women are jockeys, baseball umpires, atomic scientists, and business executives, maybe someday they can master parallel parking.
I'm a very firm believer in karma, and put it this way: I get a lot of good parking spots.
I get parking tickets all the time.
It was such a turning point to find that I had a talent and I had something to contribute, somewhere.
When I got my job on 'Parks,' it was so dreamy, kind of unfathomable. I didn't think a job that excellent could exist for me.
I legit can not parallel park. This is no joke!
