What I was told by the building supervisor (friend of mine) was: Someone didn't like where I was parking, so you (me) have to stop.

In order to be able to plug in at work, I had to park next to the building and grounds garage, which is the equivalent of two parking spaces closer to the building than any marked parking space. Apparently, some co-worker of mine didn't think that was fair. Bummer too, since while I was able to park my car there, I would help out brushing snow off the others' cars as mine would have a little less snow on it. but now I have to spend my time clearing snow from my car after work instead of helping the others out.

Cost was never an issue since the Building Supervisor told me what they pay for electricity and since I only would use .8KWhrs a day, it only cost about $0.04/day to plug in at work.
