As a teenager in the late sixties I worked in a multi level parking lot. There was no valet parking, but the way the parking was set up, if you blocked in another car you were supposed to leave your car keys in the car. So, we did have to move cars around quite a bit. Because it was near downtown most of the cars were plane janes. There were a few hot cars in there like the Cuda, GTO, Mustangs and I remember one Triumph with the large engine. That car had some power! I have to say that I was very respectful of the other people's cars, even at that young age. We had one individual though that enjoyed taking joy rides through the different levels of the parking lot. One day on one of his rides he lost it and crashed the car into the wall. Well, I have been carrying those memories with me all my life and have a thing about having someone park my cars. It's taken me 40 years to get over it and now if I have no option, will let them park me, depending on what I'm driving. I have been known to go to some other establishment because of the parking.
