If you're a commuter, how do you go about finding out whether or not you're eligible for employee parking? I've talked to two different airport employees where I will be commuting from and neither had the slightest clue. Even tried to call airport ops and had no luck.

Don't forget fedex or ups. With them once you sign up for the Jumpseat it's your seat. Not even another fedex/ups guy can bump you off it.
I used to do the AFW-ORD commute and it was the latest flight (2am) I could take to show for a 6am show in ORD and I usually had the whole row of 4 seats to myself and the cargo containers.

If you are at north field/Kaiser/Landmark at OAK walk 2-3 minutes to where the rental car buses drop off/pickup. Its one bus system, no Hertz or Avis buses. Buses to/from the main terminal go every five minutes or so. They do no care whether you rented a car or not. At least I never had a problem. There are even places you can park near to Kaiser, if you're sly, without going in their lot and can probably get away with it for a few days without paying anything, or getting a ticket/tow. I will not guarantee that, but again, its worked for me.
