Amazing how gov't agencies favor alternate transportation but do everything to discourage it!
Years ago parked my commuting bike for many months in an empty/not used closet.
New boss, who was anti-bike, told that it was dangerous to park in there and someone could get hurt! Park in the parking lot it was told.
Found a nice spot under an overhang and was told that someone 'could trip over it.'
Finally was ordered to park bike in the far corner of the parking lot away from any building!
Seems they were short on parking spaces, so I submitted a redesign for the parking lot that would gain 2 extra parking spaces + included a spot for up to 2 motorcycles and/or bicycles.
Someone in upper management liked the idea and it was implemented over the objections of the new boss.
More than one way to achieve change!
Seems that new boss irked lots of other employees; someone 'keyed' his brand new Corvette . . . on both sides.
