From Parking Lot Attendant to Mayor

Tuesday, January 18, 2011 by Stef Faulkenberry
Who says being a parking lot attendant is a dead end job? Well those of us in the parking industry sure don't think so. I mean, there is a plethora of things one can do here in the parking world. And parking can even be a springboard for bigger and better things.

Take Michael Bloomberg for example. The billionaire mayor of New York City - yeah that Michael Bloomberg. Well guess what? He got his start in the parking industry. Yep, he was a parking lot attendant while working his way through college. Now, I doubt he had any advanced parking management system to track scofflaws, etc. But I personally think it is rather inspiring to see someone of this stature start at the bottom and work his way up and for the record, I think it is really cool that he started in parking.
