How RUDE

[daydream**believer]

Got ready early this morning so i could drop the kids at school and head to Westfield before it got too hot.

Got a great park at the shops.

Got everything done that i needed to and when i get back to my car, some ratbag has parked in a non car spot right behind me, blocking me in.

I rummage through my bag looking for a pen to write down her licence plate so i can report her to westfield. No pen.

I look for my phone, find it. Phone is not charged (nothing unusual for me).

So i stand and wait and wait and wait and just as im about to leave and go find center management, this lady runs to the car yelling "Sorry Sorry".
I say "You are a rude, inconsiderate *female dog*. I was just about to go report you. This is not a car park and your selfishness has kept me waiting here with my baby."

She says "I was only 5 minutes".

I say "Actually, it has been 9 minutes since i got here, so who knows how long you were before that".

She then gets in the car and drives off.
X-(  some people are so inconsiderate and rude.

And there were plenty of other car spaces left that she could have parked in

lady with a baby, lady with a baby....

she only apologised, and not heartfelt, shouted as running to car.  Only because she was busted.  She lied about how long she had been gone, trying to trivialise her actions.

How do you know it wasn't heartfelt?

Running? to move from her inconsiderate parking space

I doubt that many people would take exact notice (down to minutes) of how long they were at shops.

Maybe she needed to pee urgently :_|

I'm still interested in hearing if Amy would have responded differently had it been a big bikie with angry tatt's.

Do big tattooed bikies shop at Westfields? 😛

I'd doubt that too. think they'd get their misses to go there for them

[freddie*rooster]

Yes but what if they didn't have a misses, and they wanted to buy a T Bone or some spuds at Coles?

😛

I wouldn't have been very happy if it happened to me.  Amy was there no other parking available?   She deserved to get her vehicle towed away.

My dd had to go and have a little talk to a mother from the school oppposite, who thought it ok to park in our drive way while she walked across the road to collect the children one afternoon..........Fortunately for her I wasn't home to see it.

Hmm, it is possible an unattached bikie might go gather his own ingredients for cooking & and selfishly park his vehicle anywhere he chooses, but...

..I'd be more inclined to think they'd go for a counter meal at a pub with their mates?

I would have been really annoyed as well however swearing at the woman was uncalled for and wasn't real classy, she shouldn't have done it but swearing at her served no purpose. She did offer a form of apology when she was running to her car when she saw you.

You could still have told her she was out of line parking like that without swearing. Sadly in today's world you do run the risk of either getting belted or your car damaged. It shouldn't be like that but it is.
