Cizx, you forget that by backing into my parking spot every day, I waste 30-60 seconds of time that I can charge the company for. Secondly, it allows me get out of the building faster in the afternoon. Gotta get out of McLean before traffic starts to spill out into the secondary routes.

More like morons.

There was a sign at the Getty Center parking spots "DO NOT BACK IN". This idiot in a Ford truck backs in and hits an HVAC duct.

I didn't forget that... mostly because I didn't know it in the first place.

The point is that it's inconsiderate. There's a pretty deep and distressing lack of consideration for others in the world.

Don't even get me started on using turn signals.

I'm actually more comfortable in most situations backing into spots. Probably from doing parking displays all summer when I sold cars in college.

I'll back into a stall if theres nobody waiting in the back of me or like mentioned before there's a sign saying not too.  I used to work for a moving company and to get some of the trucks into and back out reversing is needed.  If not try reversing a flatbed truck or a semi through a windy drive way going up a hill when you're already tired from emptying a 45 foot container at someones home.  But, I'm doubting you guys are referring to things like this.  But its a habit for me since we did these things.

Backing into spots is nothing. People in the Valley do all sorts of stupider stuff like drive in the wrong direction in parking garages to get that prime spot - sometimes necessitating the use of 7 point turn; or suddenly stop in the middle of the street to talk to a random person on the side of the road.
