I don't fret too much over bike racks, as I can usually find something to lock too. Handicap Parking signs are often convenient. At the job cited above, it was the flagpole out front. At the current job, it is the post of a chain link fence by the loading dock.
In the downtown area of San Diego, there are several locations where they will cut your lock/chain if you lock to a sign post. Not only do they NOT provide bike parking, they will remove your bike if you attempt to park in some locations... and this is NOT posted.
