We have allocated couple of parking spots at company's building, their count is about 40% of employee count. We organized ourselves into groups of 2-3 employees sharing each parking place and we co-ordinate our daily parking withing these small groups. (Occasionally also between these groups.) This works fine.
I have reasons why I am using a car only when really needed (5 times a year, 2% of overall business days) so the other colleagues sharing the spot with me have a benefit of great availability.
Since I am eligible for sharing (6 months by now), I didn't request parking so far (and as indicated I don't intend to use it until it's really needed, few times a year).
For those days (the 2%), if I really need to come and park, I personally expect my request for parking to have priority priority over the requests of my other 2 colleagues (who use the spot 98% of time).
Is the above justified? And most importantly; how can I ensure I get the parking spot for that 2% of days I really need it?
