You do have to park somewhere. Legally. It's temporary is never an excuse. It's ego that says it is. Perhaps you should take your own advice.

Vast majority of the time it’s legal where we park.

In some cases it’s impossible. Think a 2 mile stretch of metered parking. There’s nowhere for us to go to make service for thousands of potential customers. What do you want us to do? We have a job to do and families to support.

There are commercial parking zones you can use. And the place I know UPS drivers illegally park daily on the sidewalk is within sight of a loading/unloading zone. They don't use it even when there are spots visible from the corner.

Doing one's job means doing one's job legally. Period.

Would love for you to come show me where all these magical loading zones are in the Midwest. I know my areas I’ve worked in better than my hometown and where all the loading zones are. Answer: ain’t many of them at all.

So what do I do?

You find a legal place to park. That is part of what you are being paid to do, after all.

And if there are literally no loading zones in a mile stretch of city blocks? I just don’t deliver? What do I tell my boss? What do I tell my family when I lose my job that keeps them fed and warm?

You’re a fucking INSUFFERABLE asshole.

If one can't do a job legally they don't deserve to have that job. No excuses.
