This is just a guess, but perhaps the yellow-painted parking spaces are reserved for customers only and the businesses in question allow their employees to park in the white-painted spaces.
That's what I was going to say! I know that that's how it works at the Provo Mall - my brother works there, and he's told to park out in the white spaces.
The Epistler was quite honestly knocked on her ethereal behind by the sheer logic of this.
Good call. We've actually had a couple of comments submitted to the same effect, which will post tomorrow. Alas, I've never worked anywhere that had color-coded parking spots (at least not without explanatory signs as well), and apparently none of the other writers had either.
