People who take our parking space suck!

[scatty]

Parking is a big problem where I live. Everyone only gets one reserved space per unit. We have the first space. So sometimes we have resident's visitors park in our numbered space. It pisses me off. Then they say "I'll only be a minute!" and act put off by telling them to move ASAP! Would I park in someone's driveway and tell them I'd only be a minute?! Ignorance runs rampant here! ARRGGHHHHH.....

we live by an elementary school and once in a while some utter bad word will park in front front of our driveway. And of course when you ask them to move they act all put out. I've gone from asking them to telling them. Jerks. Once I pulled up beside one and sat on my horn till she got the hint.

do you think someone would take an orange cone if you put something like that there?

probably, huh?

sorry you have to deal with suck jerks on a regular basis-- you should say to them what you just said about the parking in someone's driveway thing, they probably never thought of it that way. IDK if it'd help, but some people respond better to rational logical arguments (even if you shouldn't need one. uh, it's YOUR space. end of argument) versus someone being angry at them which just makes them super defensive.

luck,

This kinda goes back to that whole hating people post I made awhile ago.
