$40 to park!
Good lord – arrived in San Francisco and rented a car since it seemed like the better way to go then cabbing and turns out to park the damn car cost as much as to rent it – after being accosted by homeless people in the Safeway parking lot at Portrero Hill where I stopped to get water, I was outraged when the hotel told me that $40 was the going rate here in the city and I told them that 90% of the people living in this fair city could not afford to pay their $40 park rate, so what was their point.
Reason No. 843 why I left this town – the gap between the have and have nots is HUGE – and San Francisco is so unnecessarily expensive.
