NU 12: What pisses you off at the school? What must be done? - valet parking

NU 12: What pisses you off at the school? What must be done?



In my first day to school at it shocked me in the aspect of parking lot.  When I am entering the parking lot the guard halts me because I don't have the parking lot sticker. I said I am a student and even showed my ID as a proof. He told still I am not allowed because I don't have the sticker. So rushing to meet the class I had no choice but to park at the Rockwell parking lot, which will need a walk to go to the school  campus. After my class I went  to the registrar to get a sticker. They were able to give me after presenting my official receipt and certificate of registration of my car, which I need to get from the Rockwell parking lot and return to the  campus which I hoped that they have told me in the enrollment so that I was able to prepare and not go back and forth just for the documents. I was so happy that I already have the sticker and that next week I can park already. And the next day I was able to enter the parking of of AGSB and to my surprise that there another booth that you need to pay and I even provided my ID and argue to pay I was remember that you can get the sticker for free but still thinking why should I need to pay for I am already a student there. I was wondering why should there be a payment for this. I am student paying for the tuition fees anyway. But then I realized maybe there should be a payment for the maintenance of the parking area assuming that of course they did not include in the tuition fees because not everybody has a car in going to school. I consider the rationale behind. The next school day I was halt again I thought there was something wrong again but the guard told me there were no more parking available that I need to park again at Rockwell parking lot I told him alright anyway I will wait. And then he told me that it is not allowed to wait and line up in the parking lot so it really stress me because I have to park at Rockwell again and during this time the Rockwell parking rates is in a per hour basis which would surely give me a higher payment because it is still early. This scenario really bothers me. I just wonder why not the school  provide a free valet parking instead? Since it is not the students fault if there were no parking lot available and consider that the student pays a fee for the parking lot and that if he park at Rockwell a higher charge should be paid because of the differences in the rate. I am sure that a valet service would greatly ease the result of limited parking lot available. The guard on duty does nothing at all in the parking area they just roam around. Why doesn't the school  train the guards in driving skills so that they can provide a solution for the limited parking available? 3

In my current workplace what pisses me is the lack of system in the sales department. I would not disclose the company for the privacy purpose. The boss would always have this thinking at the back of his mind that I am not working. Why is that so? I get a lot of gas and proved no result. I told them it is hard to get a quick result because I am just new and that almost all clients know them already. I need to generate sales on my own but how should I do that if my gas allowance is only limited and that I need to reach province in order to generate sales. I argue that rationale which he accepted but not convinced. So I have no choice but to prove to him that I was really working. Good thing that just recently I was able to sell a really huge amount that even surpass the existing sales employees. So here is the scenario: The company exists for more than 25 years it is implied that they stayed that long because they have already a lot of customer and know them already. The sales department acts according to their own will without any specific regulations as long as they generate sales. It is also understood that their gas allowance would not be that big because they are not searching for possible new clients and thus just maintained the relationship with them I even doubt if they are really efficiently functioning because by that they can just call their clients and wouldn't really need a huge allocation for the gas. This was practiced ever since and wasn't able to anticipate for their new employees. My situation is that I need to look for clients. I know I can do this however because of the lack of system my gas allowance would be big. Why? We don't have specific area. And as a new employee I go north to south just to look for one, which would really, need a greater gas allowance. They compare me from old employees. –This shouldn't be because the old employees where one of the pioneers and it is very obvious that the chances of acquiring customer during their time is much more easier because they have lot of options unlike now that I need to really search. In fact I believe that whoever got a new customer is really great. The old employees would just go to the grocery and look for the manufacturers of goods and go to them while in my case I need to be observant in the surroundings and look for untapped customer that is why my gas consumption is big because I am really searching. At the back of my head I can even suggest to create a system for this situation. The company would save a lot of gas if the employees would be very specific in its own area. Why? Because that employee wouldn't need to go from north to south. He just need to stay within his area and if his area is small then give him two or three area instead.
