    Haha. You're sitting in the parking lot in the heat. That must suck.

    At least you get to go home to a place with no power. ;)

    He is in the faculty lot by the Quadrangle. Half of the lot is metered, and he is in the metered part. Are you on campus?

    Off Cullen. Heading down Cullen from 45 toward Wheeler, just before you get to Wheeler it's the lot to the left (in front of the quad). I can't read the lot number on the PDF maps.

    We were already helped by a Parking guy in a white truck with yellow lights. He didn't do anything but help Derek push his car into a spot, then he left. Are these the same people?

    I called campus police who transferred me to someone else who said they were the one to talk to about someone needing help with thier vehicle. i gave them description and they said they were going to look for the car.

    Mulder??? :confused:

    A good description of your whereabouts on your first post would have helped us send you some help, but I am glad y'all are all right now.

    EDIT:
    You are probably on 13A. I know I was late with my response. At least you're out of trouble there.

    Anyway, Lady_Di got the answer. :eek:

    I waited out there for 30 minutes, nobody showed up.

    I'm not waiting out there in the heat any longer.


    Besides, we called the damn Campus Police first thing, and all they did was transfer us to Parking, who sent somebody out... he helped me push the car into a metered spot and then he left.

    So now I'm sitting here wondering what the **** am I supposed to do now.

    :confused: I guess it depends on what you want to do...?

    How about your insurance agent... to get a lift to go home... or maybe a relative of finals... or a friend in the UH vicinity? Where do you have to go from where you are now?

    What are your options?

    ok, I found a service online and they are gonna come out in about an hour and check everything out.

    Hopefully it won't cost me too much, but I need my car.

    I'm not in a bad place really, I can't go home anyway so I was probably just gonna chill here if I wasn't at work.

    It just sucks because I was on my way to work and now it looks like I'm not gonna be able to get into work today.
