Who the f*** put a sticker on my car?

You could be asking yourself this question very soon. Or, even more embarrassing, one of your guest may soon ask you that very same question after walking back to his car.

We first noticed towing warning papers sticked to car windshields a couple of weeks ago. They looked like this:

One thing you cannot deny fascists is their constant efforts to improve and this is why the towing warnings papers were quickly upgraded to pretty yellow stickers: -see EDIT further down-



Whoever had the guts to put these stickers on that car driver window must have been runnning a TWO FOR ONE SPECIAL on that week because the car got two stickers: one for "No ID Sticker" -what ID sticker by the way?- and another for "Backed in" - yeah because it is such a big deal to park backed in you deserve a sticker.

Trust us these stickers are a bitch to remove. And even when you remove them you can never completely remove the goo they put on your windows.

Now who the fuck think it is OK to damage our cars and our guests' cars that way? Can you imagine explaining to a friend or guest finding his (her) car with one or several stickers (see photos above), well this is the way it is done at Coral Point Condo Fort Lauderdale. HOW EMBARRASSING?

EDIT: it seems we have made a mistake assuming these yellow stickers were put on that car here at Coral Point. If you look carefully, which we should have done earlier ourselves, you will see the stickers are from another condo, the Imperial Point Colonnades, which is located 2156 NE 67th St, Fort Lauderdale, FL 33308. Talking about drastic condo rules, Imperial Point Colonnades have nothing to envy to anyone, but at least it is a 552 unit complex (23 buildings), so 24 times bigger in size than Coral Point, and with outstanding amenities.

Nevertheless we feel our point about annoying parking stickers is still valid as we certainly don't want to see those used here (a note left under the wipers works) and therefore this post stands. 

You wanna talk about parking? What about the recent parking resurfacing fiasco? It was supposed to start on a tuesday and be finished at the end of the week. It lasted for almost two weeks. And while again very authoritarian and overblown notices (two side by side if you remember) were posted before the start of the project, no one bothered to post any update during the course of the project, no apology for the inconvenience of this painful project dragging on for two weeks. People were left guessing and it was shocking how zero accomodation or communication was done as to help people find a way to park especially in the evening coming back from work.

Instead of writing ludicrous rules and going around gluing stickers on car windows taping notifications on people's windshield, we ask the condo management, the Board or whatever nutcase gave himself the mission of busting our balls: don't you think your time would have been better spent orchestrating the parking accomodations during this difficult time?!

How do you like this type of parking warning stickers to be used at Coral Point Condominium Fort Lauderdale? What do you think of the way the parking resurfacing project was handled?
