Hospitals are insane
(slrpnk.net)
Hyd does that work for people who don't have smart phones?!
They don't validate your parking for you when you leave?
Wjy would they do that if they can just charge you for parking? Hospitals are the most nickle and dime obsessed industry in America, and you are shocked that they are nickle and diming people?
All of the hospitals and medical facilities in my city validate parking for patients.
Lucky you.
I don't drive. It doesn't affect me at all. I think maybe you should try asking if they'll do it for you next time.
I am unfortunately very familiar with the policies of my local hospitals due to having multiple chronic conditions. They only partially reduce parking prices if you have a visit that lasts 4 hours or longer. At least, that's the case for the hospital which I regularly have appointments which last that long. The other hospitals won't provide any parking validation. Insult added to injury.
I remember when I lived in a smaller town and had never experienced having to pay for parking at a hospital. I read on reddit somebody commenting from the UK about having to pay for parking at hospitals and I thought it was absolutely barbaric. Everybody downvoted me because apparently it's normal. Now I know better. It's normal. Barbaric, but normal.

RULES:
I am looking for mods!
1. The "good" part of our community means we are pro-empathy and anti-harassment. However, we don't intend to make this a "safe space" where everyone has to be a saint. Sh*t happens, and life is messy. That's why we get things off our chests.
2. Bigotry is not allowed. That includes racism, sexism, ableism, homophobia, transphobia, xenophobia, and religiophobia. (If you want to vent about religion, that's fine; but religion is not inherently evil.)
3. Frustrated, venting, or angry posts are still welcome.
4. Posts and comments that bait, threaten, or incite harassment are not allowed.
5. If anyone offers mental, medical, or professional advice here, please remember to take it with a grain of salt. Seek out real professionals if needed.
6. Please put NSFW behind NSFW tags.
