So Dane and I needed to go to Walmart a couple days ago to get some stuff for our new apartment. We gather our items, check out and roll the cart out to the car. We had managed to get a very good parking spot pretty close to the doors. We load our bags and i take the cart to the cart return when i see that there is a car waiting for us to pull out so that they can get our parking spot. Then a suburban comes up on the other side and she is also waiting for our one parking spot. When i get back to the car i tell Dane that we better hurry so that they don't have to keep waiting. We pull out in a way so that the woman in the car can get our spot because she had been waiting longer. We start to pull away and we see the woman in the suburban get out of her car and start screaming at the lady in the car because she had "stolen her parking spot". About 5 minutes later her husband had to get out of the car and restrain her. The woman in the car called the police. I couldn't beleive it. It is just a parking spot...Why is it even that big of a deal? Is it really worth making a public scene? Now i know probably everyone reading this has been cut off by someone or someone has taken your spot and i know it probably makes you angry, but would you actually get out of your car and yell at them for it? I was proud of Dane for pulling out in that certain way so that the woman in the car could get it because they honestly had been waiting longer. So i guess the thought for today is... How willing are you to make a fool out of yourself for an insignificant thing?
Happy Sunday Everyone

Good thought! I guess next time someone steals my parking spot I better cool my jets. :)
ReplyDeleteSee i understand what it feels like to be angry and WANT to scream at them...but to actually DO it! I mean you got to admit that she had alot of guts...she just put them in the wrong place that day i think...
