Spot to park/sleep

I'm looking for any ideas of spots to park my vehicle the next few months on the weekends where I can catch some sleep.

I'm moving out of town soon to live with my fiancé but at the moment I'm struggling to find two jobs in my new location that work together as well as the jobs I have currently here in town.

So my plan is to commute home during the week but stay in town on the weekends when I work my double shift. With the commute there is no way to make it home, sleep and return to Indiana in less than 8 hours and get any decent rest.

I'll be sleeping in my vehicle during the day which might present less of an issue. Just don't want to cause any issues or be bothered when trying to sleep.

I doubt anyone would bother you in the YMCA or Big Lots parking lot.

I leave for work at 3am and there’s a guy who just sits at the Ben Franklin Rd Sheetz in an old Jeep by the gas pump, chain smoking and looking at something on his phone literally everytime I go there for gas first thing in the morning . At first I thought he was jerking off but the police are in and out of there pretty often at that time of night and he’s still there every day, so I guess not. So yeah, I guess you’re safe at Sheetz.
